City of London

Kentish Weekly Post 20 March 1770.

We hear from Folkestone that as soon as the news arrived there of Sir Thomas Pym Hales being duly elected for Dover, several gentlemen met at the sign of the "City of London," where an elegant supper was provided, to testify their joy on that occasion; the house was illuminated, guns were fired, the healths of the King, Queen, and Royal family, Sir Thomas Pym Hales, Lady Hales, &c., &c., were drank, and the evening concluded with the utmost mirth and decorum.
