May 30, 1723
THE POST BOY, London, May 30, 1723  A front page report from Paris says: "At Pinun, a league from Montpelier, there have been found in a Tomb, two urns with 50,000 very find Gold Medals of the Emperor Adrian; whence 'tis conjectured that this was Adrian's Tomb." A report from Plymouth mentions that: "This day came in...Robert and Mary from Virginia." Trimmed close at the top but no loss of text. A 14-1/4 x 8-1/2 inch singlesheet, nice condition.
