1828 (Nov 26). Entire letter endorsed “Pr Francis Freeling Captn Cunningham”, which arrived to Falmouth on Feb. 15, with “17/6” charge explained by the “1 1/4” add in ms to the “Oz at 14s/-per Oz” postmark at top; according to How: “some of the letters from Buenos Aires brought by “Freeling” packet were eaten by mice”, which may explain the old repair in one corner, a scarce and early usage.
