On 17 November 1766 Bailey sent Mr Bennet a bill for ‘a neat mahogany Pembroke table — £2 9s.’ plus oddments totalling 2s 6d.

A trade card of Vicars & Rutledge, upholders, in the Ponsonby Collection states they are successors to Mr Bailey of Conduit Street [Poll book; Heal Collection, British Museum].
