Abstract
Tavern dated 1604 and captioned 'In this house last year 20th October I met a person whom I took for an honest man, his conversation was agreeable and he was very good looking. Since many times I have thought of my fortunate escape for he was no other than the notorious Turpin. A little after he left me he stopped Lady Dalins chariot and robbed her of £12 and her watch and rings. This is the last public inn in Holloway. I find Turpin is living near Hackney. 8th May 1731'.
