This is to give publick notice that Theobald Hackett,
dancing-master, from England and Ireland, has open'd a
dancing-school, at the house where Mr. Brownell, lately
liv'd in Second-street, Philadelphia, where he will give due
attendance, and teach all sorts of fashionable English and
French dances, after the newest and politest manner, as
practised in London, Dublin and Paris, and will give young
ladies, gentlemen and children (that please to learn of him)
the most graceful carriage in dancing, and gentile behaviour
in company, on all occasions that possibly can be by any
dancing master whatsoever, he will teach by the month or
quarter, as reasonable as any good master.  N.B.  If any be
inclin'd to agree by the quarter, or learn privately, he
will attend duly at their own houses, or in his room, out of
school hours, & that with the utmost discretion.
