Talk:John Pender

Recent expansion
I assume that the material just added is correct, but I seriously wonder whehter it belongs here rather than going in a separate article concerning the first transatlantic cable. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:11, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Wine Auction
Not worthy of comment in the main article, but perhaps of interest to a passing researcher, might be the auction, on 3 February 1873, by Messrs. Christie, Manson & Woods, of “The Cellar of Very Fine Old Wines of John Pender, Esq., M.P. Comprising Upwards of 1100 Dozens, and consisting of about 240 Dozens of Sherry including some very rare Parcels of the Vintages of 1820 and 1826; about 600 Dozens of Fine Old Ports of the Vintages of 1820, 1834,1838, 1839, 1844, 1846, 1847, 1850, 1851, 1852, 1854,1858, 1862; and choice Bins of Old Madeira, Claret, Hock, Champagne, Burgundy, Sauterne, and Liqueurs”.
