TitleAccount book of Sir Robert Williams
Description(there is overlapping between this book and the preceding - see his remarks on pp.1-5, and cp.pp. 42-51 in 5356). Expenses still heavy, especially travelling, so much so that he is forced to write on p.25 that a journey to London with Lady Williams and Harriet [Lady Bulkelet], and staying there a month and three days, cost him about £300. More, an insurance policy cost him on Novr.1 the sum of £47.9.0. (53). He was also a pretty steady race-goer, e.g., on May 31 he spent £10 on going to Epsom, besides losing £7.9.0. there (p.19)
