To the Public. Justice to myself, and not inclination,
obliges me to take some notice of Mary Crathorne's
advertisement of last week, as she thereby seems desirous of
insinuating that those mustard and chocolate works, at the
Globe-Mill, on Germantown Road, which she give the encomium
of incomparable to, were erected at her late husband's
expence, . . . [Benjamin Jackson claims he originated the
works, took Capt. Crathorne into the partnership, and, on
the dissolution of the partnership, sold him "all my part
and share of the improvements"] which I did without fear,
knowing it was only as selling an instrument of musick, to
one that knew not how to play; [he kept his knowledge of how
to do it; now challenges Mary's selling imitations of his.]
