| Description | Requests him to obtain three sets of requisites for purses—“the same as Mrs. Birch gets”—from a person named Gill or Guest in Great Hampton Street, Birmingham. Each set contains a tassel, a ring or slider, and two little straight bits of steel for the top of the purse, with knobs at each end. Letter. Mrs. Martha Mosley (London) to William Cheshire (Soho). ? Feb. 1811. Is obliged to Cheshire for his trouble. The purse is not the thing described to her, but something on a newer principle. When the lady it is for comes to town, she wishes Cheshire to obtain for her another of the proper kind. (Fixed to the above with wax.) |
