Note 41 — Chapter IV
Reading edition
‘I remember one citizen, who having thus broken out of his house in Aldersgate Street, or thereabout, went along the road to Islington. He attempted to have gone in at the Angel Inn, and after that at the White Horse, two inns still known by the same signs, but was refused; after which he came to the Pied Bull, an inn also still continuing the same sign.’—‘Journal of the Plague Year,’ by Daniel Defoe, 1722.
