Mail robbery. A stolen Bank note recovered

A BANK-NOTE of £10 No. 1504, dated 3d November, 1797, (received in payment on the 13th November last for a Bill taken out of a Letter) was on the 2d or 3d instant paid at the Bank. The following Word is written upon the back of the Bank note, namely,

"POSTMAN, R. A."

There is great reason to suppose that the Bill above alluded to, was stolen in this Office, and from the Indorsement upon the Bank note received in payment for it, it is very probable that this Bank note has been negotiated by one of the Postmen belonging to the Post Office.

His Majesty' Postmaster-General earnestly request that whoever may have taken a Bank note of £10 of any of the Letter-carriers, between the 13th of November last and the 3d instant, will give immediate notice to Mr. Parkin their Solicitor, at this Office, where the Bank note may be seen.
