Here's some more coaching ephemera, starting with a receipt issued in March 1838 from the Castle & Falcon, Aldersgate Street, London. Unlike earlier receipts this has a reference to an Act of Parliament that stops carriers being liable for damage or loss of parcels and packages worth more than £10 unless they had been entered and paid for.
The next two items relate to the estate of the late Marianne Lady Musgrave who died in 1835 aged 31, leaving three daughters under the age of ten. One is from 1838, the second from 1841.
