Eent, Under a Landlord, who never refuses to do every thing 

 for the Accomadation of a Reasonable Tenant. 



St. James's, Yours, 



6th Sept^, 1737. Mart: Killigrew." 



"Mr. Ab-" Hall. 



Since my last of the 6th Curr* I have yours of the 4*'' and 

 22'' of the Same and thank you for being so particular as to 

 Mrs. Bownes House without w"'' I could have had no Notion of 

 the Matter ;*******-*'?? 

 The Town Custome caiiot be Sup'osed Considerable to this 

 House, I own, And as for the Passengers to and from Lysbon 

 and Spain, My friend W™ Richards hath Undertaken, that none 

 of them Shall ever Enter our House : Your Great Men the 

 Like, As to all Masters of Ships, And the Agent Secured the 

 Post House to M""'- Bowne : Punch and Drams, however Comon 

 in every other House, If my Tenant attempts the least thing 

 that Way, he shall directly be sadled with the penalty of the 

 Law, besides other oppositions as opportunity offers innumerable ; 



Desire Eagland by Guess of Eye, to give you the Dimen- 

 sions of M""^- Bowne's Signe, and let me have it : If you have 

 no objection, I intend, my Signe shall be the Spread Eagle, To 

 the Vulgar, apparently such, and nothing Else, yet in fact y® 

 KiUigrew Armes, w"^ will but only imbellish the Spread Eagle, 

 and send for the Dimentions, Designing to have it done here, 

 more Durable and to advantage, then with you nor can I enter 

 into the Notion of your getting Bear and Ale Brew'd at Home 

 for opening the House, But must desire Mr. James will think ol 

 helping us out in this matter, by gitting it in the Spring from 

 Exeter, and to be now speedily Brew'd : good as can be made 

 at such price, as the Retailer may git something by it ; Upon 

 condition of his being the Tenants only Wine Merchant * *

Cap** Steel seems well acquainted with my Weakside, and 

 so I pray you will tell him : So long time as a year and a halfe, 

 He had a price in £12 and refused and then you — °^ Lays out
