Rules of a society that is to meet every Monday evening. 1733 Dec. 10.

Manuscript document, giving the rules and regulations of a men's club, which desired to meet every week at a tavern called The Lobster for "agreeable conversation." There are 9 rules listed, in addition to a preamble, that dictates the club's rules and regulations from the election of their officers, to the proper behavior and morals of its members at meetings. The document is signed by 12 names, in keeping with the society's rule number 1, though same names have evidently been crossed out when members left the club. It is unclear where The Lobster, or this society, was located in England.

2 leaves ; 22 cm. x 19 cm.
