A commission of bankrupt has been awarded against Thomas Osborne, late of Norwich, merchant; all persons who owe him money or hold his goods are directed to deliver them to the designated merchants in Savage Gardens near Tower Hill, London.

Editorial note: Internal issue heading: Thursday May x6. x500.. Isolated from a mixed late-issue segment with adjacent notices; the more precise notice date comes from the internal issue heading. Mapped to Norwich city centre. The same source segment also contains other notices; the Thomas Osborne bankruptcy material is the strongest site-relevant item in it.
