r necessaries for a Tavern, may meet with proper encouragement from Isaac Royall Esq. (from Brooks' History of Medford.) This advertisement was answered by Mr. John Bradshaw, who was a few years prior to this date the owner and landlord of the Royal Oak Tavern. Mr. Bradshaw was landlord of the Admiral Vernon from the year 1744 to about the middle of the year 1750, when he removed back to Medford. He was succeeded by Messrs. William Peirce, William Jones, and others. In the year 1768 Mr. Moses Billings was licensed as an innholder and took charge of the Admiral Vernon, where he remained until the year 1777. In the year 1778, Mr. Edward Walker took charge of this tavern. He was succeeded by Mr. Benjamin Shaw and others. Mr. James Tufts was licensed as an innholder at the Admiral Vernon in the year 1792, and was its landlord from that year to 1800, both inclusive. At the close of Mr. Tufts' term as landlord, this house became a private dwelling, and so continued until it was destr

ere many persons licensed as innholders from the year 1690 to the year 1831, whose places of business cannot be located. It is hardly fair, however, to speak of such places as taverns, for they were only saloons for the sale of liquors, and the same may also be said of some of those previously mentioned. The following is a list of persons licensed as innholders in Medford, from the year 1690 to the year 1831, both inclusive:— Adams, Benjamin, 1756. Bascom, Henry L., 1822, 1823.

tc., of which £ 28,351-17-4 was turned over to Treasurer Gardner. In a list of absentees on file in the Probate Office with the amounts handed over to the Treasurer from the rents of their estates while in the hands of agents, Isaac Royall's agent is credited with paying into the State Treasury £ 758-3-7 1/2, in hard money, or rather the heading reads paid or ordered to be paid to the State Treasurer. A commission in insolvency was issued April 5, 1781, to Thomas Brooks, Aaron Hall and Moses Billings of Medford. Their report was filed, but the creditors refuse to have their claims liquidated on account of fluctuations in the currency. Isaac Royall died of small pox in London, England, in 1781, and his will written on parchment was probated there so far as relates to the estate in Antigua, Sir William Pepperell being appointed executor. He had expressed a wish that his will should also be recorded in Suffolk County, Massachusetts, so it may be found in the records of the Probate
