Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'I make bold to trouble you with a question which I humbly pray a line to. You was so generous as to give me hopes by your Interest with Mr Conduit Warden of the Mint you wd try to get mee some of the Broad gold when you traffickt for yr self – Tis now grown so scarce a Commodity that not one piece is to be seen or heard of in the country. If you have been so good \as to think of me/ I shall be exceedingly obliged and will if you Honour me with a line forthwith send up the purchase of them. I greatly want the smallest peices of all of Edwd the 6 & some of King James & K Charles’s Gold in better preservation as well as some particular peices.'
