Description

Folio 105. Letter from R [Robert] Yard to Sir Joseph Williamson enclosing the ?preceding newsletter. He says that Mr Duncomb's being 'sent to the Tower for making false endorsements on Exchequer bills and paying them into the Exchequer as received in the Excise whereas he bought them at 7 or 8% discount, must needs surprise people; he had nothing to say for himself, and his friends as little for him, and as he is in the same circumstances with Burton and Knight, so in all likelihood he will run the same fate, what that may be, we may perhaps be able to make some judgement of when the business of the Exchequer bills comes on again'.
