Lost or mislaid, a bond from the Governor and Company of Merchants of London Trading to the East-Indies, dated Nov. 16, 1642, conditioned for payment of 448 l. 14 s. 4 d. with lawful interest on Sept. 30, 1700, to Abigail Stevens of London, widow; whoever brings or sends it to W. Gardiner, apothecary in Leadenhall-Street, London, shall have five guineas reward, it being of no value but to the owner.

Editorial note: Normalized conservatively from a legible reward notice for a missing financial instrument. Mapped conservatively to Leadenhall Street in the City of London. Retained because it preserves an unusually concrete East India bond witness.
