Richard Hine, Grocer & Tea Dealer

Invoice for candles and tallow dips supplied by Richard Hine of Mill Lane, Sutton, Macclesfield. The business operated for many years becoming Richard Hine & Son by the 1850s. A William Hine was trading as a grocer in Macclesfield in 1878 but I am unsure if this business was related. The image on the billhead concentrates on the sourcing of tea from China.
