SOUP.
GOOD
SOUP, made of the best pieces, will be delivered every day (Sundays excepted)
from 11 to 1 o'clock, at Mrs. Richardson's next-door to Mr. Hingston's, Crockery
Merchant, at six cents per quart. It will be delivered also at 5 o'clock on the
afternoon of Saturday, for the supply on Sunday. The society for the relief of
the poor, having made this establishment with a view of rendering their funds
more efficient, indulge the hope that private families will encourage it by the
purchase of soup.
Have a
great portion of the soup will be distributed gratuitously, a favorable
opportunity is offered for a display of charity by country people and others
who may have it in their power to send meat and vegetables, which is sent to
Mrs. Richardson's will be thankfully received. Potatoes, which at this season
are liable to frost bite, will in that case answer the purpose.
SPUN COTTON,
The
product of the labor of the poor may be bought as usual of Mr. Robblits [sic].
