_Seamen's Tickets._--From an old paper, 1768:
"Feb. 8. Died at her house in Chapel Street, near Ratcliff Highway,
aged 95, Margaret McKennow, who kept a lodging-house in that
neighbourhood many years, and dealt in seamen's tickets. She is said to
have died worth upwards of 6000l., and just after she expired
twenty-nine quarter guineas were found in her mouth."
