_Lord Mayor's Show in_ 1701.--Among the varieties which at different times
have graced the procession of the City on Lord Mayor's day, be pleased to
take the following from the _Post-boy_, Oct. 30. to Nov. 1. 1701:
"The Maiden Queen who rid on the Lord Mayor's day in the pageant, in
imitation of the Patroness of the Mercer's Company, had a fine suit of
cloaths given her, valued at ninety guineas, a present of fifty
guineas, four guineas for a smock, and a guinea for a pair of gloves."
