Lancaster, October 15, 1763. As the gentleman who teaches
the grammar-school in this county has concluded to
discontinue that employment next Christmas, I take this
method of giving timely notice to the gentlemen who have
their children or wards under his tuition, and to others who
may be disposed to have their youth instructed in all, or in
any one of the branches of eduction specified, that I design
to continue it, at the same place, from the first of the new
year. . . [9 lines]
I hope to introduce with success declamations and select
pieces of dramatick compositions, for the improvement of my
pupils in pronounciation, accent, emphasis, and gesture.
I expect a well qualified assistant from Pennsylvania; and
gentlemen may depend on having their chilren tutored with
great care, and much I hope to their satisfaction, . . .
