Narrow folio, 395 x 160 mm. 32 pages [of which 3 blank], folded, plain wrappers. Samuel Moates, listed as Moate in Robson's 1832 London Directory, was a ship owner and chandler of Lower Shadwell, London. "Copy. The Inventory of the Stock in Trade, Furniture, Fixtures, Horse, Chaise and Harness, the property of Mr. Samuel Moates…Decease'd, taken at his late Premises at Lower Shadwell and valued December 13, 14 & 17th 1833 by order of the Executors for the purpose of Administrating to the Effects." An earlier valuation used for the purpose of assessing loss "All these fixtures & all we had [?] up - the warehouse & greater parts of the house, the stock in trade the whole consumed by fire on the 15th January 1857." The original valuation in ink, with what we assume to be amendments made in 1857 in pencil. The original valuation placed the furniture, fixtures, horse, chaise etc. at £266 8s. and the extensive stock in trade [15 pages] at £2,533.
