A Confusing but Clearly Political Skit Note, for Self, Ridiculous & Folly, promising to pay £5 to Sir Charles Spencer or Bearer on the return of Common Sense, 1 April 1796, serial number 9162, signature of Simon Skirtless, with a vignette of Antony Alltop, Boot-maker, walking past a milestone with XXXIX (39) on it, saying the words 'I Am The Go', laid down on paper, otherwise very nice condition, good fine and rare
Outing unlisted £200-£260

It is not possible to say for sure but Sir Charles Spencer may refer to Lord Charles Spencer, the MP for Oxfordshire, but it is unclear what the vignette is attempting to portray, or why.
