The subscriber has lately built a a new and very commodious
house for tavern-keeping, about 200 yards from his late
dwelling-house, at the foot of the bridge, and on the King's
highway to Newark, and intends, God willing, to leave all
business, as shop-keeping and farming, and to apply himself
solely to tavern-keeping, and to keep as good a house as the
country will afford, viz eating, drinking and lodging with
the best accommodation for horses. . . [5 more lines] By the
public's most humble servant, Abraham Godwin. Commonly
called Gordon. N.B. A convenient room for dancing, and a
fiddler, will always be ready for the service of ladies and
gentlemen who may require it.  Also a guide to attend any
stranger, who shall shew them all the natural curiosities at
the falls.
