It offers a reward di £900 for the en try of the marriage of Col. Francis Camp. on Seymour to Lectora or Eleanora Hudson which took place between Sop- tember, 1787; and Jne; 1795,
Colonel Francis Cempton Sevincur wits the second son of Dr. Princis Seymour Denn of Wells, and grandson of Sir Ed ward Seymour, the barnet who claimed the Dukedom of Somerset on the demise of his kinsman the seventh Duke, adil succeeded in putablishing his claini.
