Excerpt from John Law, the Projector, Vol. 15
About noon on a charming day towards the latter end of May, 170 5, a sedan-chair was set down opposite White’s Coffee-house, in Saint James’s-street.
There was nothing unusual in the circumstance. Two or three chairs, indeed, had just discharged their freight on the same spot without attracting the slightest attention; but the case was very different with the remarkably handsome man who emerged from the sedan in question, and stepped lightly upon the pavement.
