For sale, the dwelling house in Fredericksburg, with all the
out-houses, and near a lot and a half of ground, where I
formerly lived; also two lots, with stables for upwards of
20 horses, and a room for carriages; the above would suit a
publican extreme well, the house being very commodious for
that purpose, there being a large room 40 by 20, one ditto
17 by 20, two ditto 17 by 10, all with fire-places, and a
hall 20 feet square between the two buildings, with a porch
on each side, and five rooms above stairs, three of which
have fire-places; the large room would make a good ball
room, or a good store room, and the back building would suit
a merchant with a family. For sale also, a large building
erected for a bloomery, for making of cast metal, with three
lots of ground, which might easily be converted into a
glass-house, which is much wanted in this colony, which
might be plentifully supplied with good cinders, and proper
sand, on easy terms. The above building would make a good
theatre, which might be very beneficial to the town in
general, and country adjacent, if proper persons, and of
good demeanour, were to perform, it being very circular for
a large concourse of audience, which but indifferent hands
have experienced. For terms apply to the agent, who will
return an answer with expedition. [signed] B. Grymes.
