Miller & (Kerwood). Chimney Sweepers & Nightmen

Miller’s trade card also shows the removal of night soil and the putting out of chimney fires. Of interest again is the claim of royal patronage as well as that of the Board of Excise and the East India Company. The card documents the end of Miller’s partnership with Kerwood, whose name is merely struck out.
