Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'the bearer is the young tailor of Campden who has collected so many old coins. ... the young man, whose name is George Ballard, has been all about the Country to pick up old Money, and has got a great Number ... When he has gott any new that I have not seen, he brings ’em to me to tell him whose they are ... I suppose he will bring some to shew you.'

(Hearne 1885, vol. 9 p. 276; Burnett 2020b, p. 1309)
