HARGRAVE (D.) or (RICHARD), bookseller in London, (1) against Furnivalls Inn Gate; (2) Fleet Street, 1689-1713 (?). In the Term Catalogues for Hil. and Easter 1696, he is mentioned as joint publisher with S. Heyrick { HERRICKE, Samuel ( - 1744) ‹ LBT 15356 › } of Sir Thomas Raymond's Reports. [T.C. II. 568, 579.] In one of these entries his initial is given as D., in the other R. In 1713 a Richard Hargrave was connected with the publication of a pamphlet called The Art of being Honest for a little Time, which was the outcome of a dispute amongst the parish authorities of St. Dunstan's in the West. It gave the names of all the inhabitants who paid the Scavenger's Rate in 1713-14, and though the trades of the persons named were omitted many stationers and booksellers of that period are named. [B.M. 796. c. 35.] In The London Gazette, October 28th-31st, 1689, "Mr. Hargrave" against Furnivall's Inn Gate is mentioned in an advertisement of a sale as one of those from whom catalogues could be obtained.
