Hi,
I just discovered your blog after searching for "Thin Wine" by Wylie, Barr and Ross.
Yesterday, my father told me that my grandfather, Archie Thompson, invented this biscuit, though the company didn't give him a bonus of any sort.
Still, it was wonderful to be able to track down the advertisement on your blog.
I have inherited these documents from three of Elizabeth Ridings' grandchildren: my grandmother and her younger brother and sister. They are, presumably, the documents they felt were worth saving.
...who in times when learning's eye was dim, and the rich scrolls of eloquence were hid in thickest gloom, search'd into deep obscurity, and found treasures of lore, yet undestroy'd by time...
...in a few more fleeting years, my own presumptuous hand will be for ever still; nor may I hope a single leaf of mine will e'er descend to after ages; but if one escape grey time...let it bear witness .
