ABSTRACT

THE Journeymen Taylors in and about the Cities of London and Westminster, to the Number of Seven Thousand and upwards, have lately entred into a Combination to Raise their Wages, and leave off Working an Hour sooner than they used to do; and for the better Carrying on their Design, have subderibed their respective Names in Books prepared for that Purpose, at the several Houses of Call or Resort (being Publick-Houses in and about London and Westminster) where they use; and collect several considerable Sums of Money to defend any Prosecutions against them.
