The Times clipping, 5021/MARK





Photocopied clipping from The Times of 15th September 1826. Date of acquisition unknown. Labelled by Henchard with Ref. 5021/MARK.

He has circled a story about an apple tree with a prodigious crop, owned by "two ladies, named Batt, at Mark [a Somerset village]"

To the left he has noted: 'Chisel Jersey? Pre-Darbinett?' To the bottom right are conversion figures for the quantities named into pints.
