With nomination of what days of the week they do come to London, and on what days they return, whereby all sorts of people may find direction how to receive, or send, goods or letters, unto such places as their occasions may require. As also, Where the Ships, Hoys, Barks, Tiltboats, Barges and wherries, do usually attend to Carry Passengers, and Goods to the coast Towns of England, Scotland, Ireland, or the Netherlands; and where the Barges and Boats are ordinarily to be had that go up the River of Thames westward from London. By john Taylor. London Printed by A. G. 1637. To all Whom it may concern, with my kind remembrance to the Posts, Carriers, Waggoners and Higglers. IF any man or woman whomsoever hath either occasion or patience to Read this following description, it is no doubt but they shall find full satisfaction for as much as they laidout for the book, if not, it is against my will, and my good intentions are lost and frustrate. I wrote it for three Causes, first for a general and necessary good use for the whole Commonwealth, secondly to express my grateful duty to all those who have honestly paid me my money which they owed me for my Books of the collection of Taverns, in London and Westminster, and ten shires or Counties next round about London, and I do also thank all such as do purpose to pay me hereafter: thirdly, (for the third sort) that can pay me and will not; I write this as a document: I am well pleased to leave them to the hangman's tuition (as being past any other man's mending) for I would have them to know, that I am sensible of the too much loss that I do suffer by their pride or cozenage, their number being so many, and my charge so great, which I paid for paper and printing of those books, that the base dealing of those sharks is Insupportable; But the tedious T oil that I had in this Collection, and the harsh and unsavoury answers that I was fain to take patiently, from Ostlers, Carriers, and Porters, may move any man that thinks himself mortal to pity me. In some places I was suspected for a projector, or one that had devised some trick to bring the Carriers under some new taxation; and sometimes I was held to have been a man taker, a Sergeant or bailiff to arrest or attach men's good or beasts; indeed I was scarce taken for an honest man amongst the most of them: all which suppositions I was enforced oftentimes to wash away, with two or three jugges of Beer, at most of the Inns I came to; In some Inns or Hosteries, I could get no certain Intelligence, so that I did take Instructions at the next Inn unto it, which I did oftentimes take upon trust though I doubted it was indirect and imperfect, Had the Carrier's ostler's and others known my harmless and honest intendments, I do think this following relation, had been more large and useful, but if there be any thing left out in this first Impression, it shall be with diligence inserted hereafter, when the Carriers and I shall be more familiarly acquainted, and they, with the ostler's, shall be pleased in their ingenerosity, to afford me more Ample directions. In the mean space, I hope I shall give none of my Readers cause to curse the Carrier that brought me to town. Some may object that the Carriers do often change and shift from one Inn or lodging to another, whereby this following direction may be hereafter untrue, to them I answer, that I am not bound to bind them, or to stay them in any place, but if they do remove, they may be enquired for at the place which they have left or for saken, and it is an easy matter to find them by the learned intelligence of some other Carrier, an ostler, or an understanding Porter. Others may object and say that I have not named all the towns and places that Carriers do go unto in England and Wales: To whom I yield, but yet I answer, that if a Carrier of York hath a letter or goods to deliver at any town in his way thither, he serves the turn well enough, and there are carriers and messengers from York to carry such goods and letters as are to be past any ways north, broad and wide as far or further than Berwick: so he that sends to Lancaster, may from thence have what he sends conveyed to Kendal, or Cockermouth, and what a man sends to Hereford may from thence be passed to Saint david's in Wales, the Worster carriers can convey any thing as far as Carmarthen, and those that go to Chester may send to Carnarvan: the carriers or posts that go to Exeter may send daily to Plymouth, or to the Mount in Cornwall, Maxfield, Chipnam, Hungerford, Newberry: and all those Towns between London and Bristol, the Bristol carriers do carry letters unto them, so likewise all the towns and places are served, which are betwixt London and Lincoln, or Boston, Yarmouth, Oxford, Cambridge, Walsingham, Dover, Rye or any places of the King's Dominions with safe and true carriage of goods and letters; as by this little books directions may be perceived. Besides, if a man at Constantinople or some other remote part or Region shall chance to send a letter to his parents, master, or friends that dwell at Nottingham, Derby, Shrewsbury, Exeter, or any other town in England; then this book will give instructions where the Carriers do lodge that may convey the said letter, which could not easily be done without it: for there are not many that by hart or memory can tell suddenly where and when every carrier is to be found, I have (for the ease of the Reader & the speedier finding out of every town's name, to which any one would send, or from whence they would receive, set them down by way of Alphabet; and thus Reader if thou be'st pleased, I am satisfied, if thou be'st contented, I am paid, if thou be'st angry, I care not for it.
