The Public Ledger Office and Bank of Enquiry Proposal
A proposed public register in St Paul’s Church Yard outlines an indexing ledger to centralize all advertisements and notices. It promises three-pence searches, three-shilling maximum ad fees, and offices open eight to six with staffed clerks to aid distant readers, aiming to unify disparate papers and boost information flow.
