Histórico
This appears to have been a select betting club, new members referred to as 'nephews', being elected on the nomination of existing members. Officers of the Board included a President, Serjeant, Champion, Bellringer, Secretary and Steward. The meeting place from 13 March 1734/5 to 16 June 1737 was Cary's, Golden Square, and from 26 June 1737 to 12 February 1740/1, at the Fountain in the Strand. Bets were laid on any subject of topical or personal interest and were often concerned with parliamentary business; the stakes appear to have been in claret or other wine rather than money.
