Licensing William Fadéx to Print and Sell The Public Dger
In a petition to the crown, William Fadéx of London, printer, seeks royal license to print publish and vend a work titled The Public Dger, at his own expense with aid from gentlemen. The grant would endure fourteen years forbidding reprinting abridgment or distribution abroad without his consent, under penalties. The document notes the court at St James on December 17 1759 in the thirty third year of the reign and directs obedience by the Stationers Company and customs officers.
