Comments

This is to certify whom it may Concern
that the Bearer hereof is an Inhabitant of
our Parish, and whom I have Personally
known for Several Years, wherein he
hath always behav'd himself as a sober,
honest and inoffensive Man, is a Fuller
and Dyer by Profession, and by a careful
Prudent, and industrious Attention to
his Business supports a Wife and Family
rather in a decent and comfortable, than
in a penurious & pinching Way.
              Witness my Hand
                         John Shotton  Curate of
                                       Rothbury
