Tickets to be had of H. Gaine, Printer, Bookseller, and
Stationer, at his Printing Office, at the Bible and Crown,
in Hanover Square, and of Mr. Morris, at his lodgings, at
Mr. Faris's, Hatter, near Beekman's Slip.
The ceremony of waiting on ladies and gentlemen at their
houses, with bills, has been for some time left off in this
company; the frequent solicitations on these occasions,
having been found rather an inconvenience to the persons so
waited on, than a compliment; for which reason, Mr. Morris
hopes the town will dispense with a personal application,
and favour him with their company.
