a general satisfaction, having the year before last the honour of receiving from the honourable society of arts, manufactures and commerce, the first bounty of Fifty Pounds sterling for the best Sturgeon cured in America; and judged to be in every degree equal to that of the Baltick. But the last year I was obliged, through losses and misfortunes, to be concerned in partnership: My partner, on the sixteenth of July, 1765, having a mind to suplant me, refused sending me any supplies, without I would leave my wife, to carry on; imagining he had knowledge sufficient, if he could get me out of the way, and offered me money to support myself, and on my re- fusal I should put no more fish at Lamberton. At which time, being under a cloud, I threw all my labour into his hands, which was one half of every thing cured or put up on the premises, in order to pay my just debts; and, for fear of wanting supplies in the time of my greatest season, suffered myself to be drove from the place. On my journey to the Half-Moon, above Albany, before I reached New-York, he took up in his boat a French Indian and his wife, to supplant my wife in my absence, and told scandalous reports about me to my wife, and offered her fifteen pounds, besides paying her passage to England, if she would quit the place. He obtained his desire, though he never paid the fifteen pounds. By this means I lost my season; which rendered me incapable of discharging my just debts. My wife left on the place several cags branded with my brand, filled by the above Indian and his wife, also a great deal of Sturgeon was by them put up at Lamberton, sold and shipped, under colour of partnership with me. Therefore, to prevent any further imposition, I take this method to inform the publick, That I am not this year any ways concerned at Lamberton, but carry on the manufacture at Kensington,

and shall be obliged to all gentlemen and others that will favour me with their orders, as they may depend on hav- ing no worse fish than that which did me and the country so much honour. Whoever shall buy any of the said fish, are desired to observe the method of opening the cag; draw the pickle off in some clean dry pan, then put the cork in tight, take out the head that is numbered, drive down the hoops again, and pour the pickle on, putting a coarse cloth on the cag, and the head upon that, with a small weight thereon, to keep the air out; and you may keep it a whole year or two. Let all the fish be taken out with a fork, not with hands.
N. B. The said fish is to be sold by me EDWARD BROADFIELD, at Kensington, and by Mr. JEREMIAH BAKER, near the Crooked Billet, in Water Street, and by no other persons .- The Pennsylvania Journal, No. 1228, June 19, 1766.

Stolen out of the Fulling mill of Ephraim Seely, Full- er, in Cumberland County, West New-Jersey, on the Tenth of May last, three Pieces of Cloth, viz. one of blue Flannel, containing about nine or ten Yards, scowered out, fit for fulling; another of a grey Colour, in the Grease, seven or eight Yards; and the Third a fine white Flannel, nineteen Yards, not certainly known whether it was Part dressed or not, nor whether it was taken at the same Time with the other two. It is supposed they were taken by Michael Hulings, John Beck, and James Mears, who came in a Vessel to Cohansy Bridge, in order to get a freight to Philadelphia, or some of them, they being seen several Times at the said Mill, by a Man tending a Saw-mill at the other End of the Dam. The pieces were all marked in one Corner with Thread, viz. the white Piece 47, the blue 92, and the grey 99; but it is likely the Mark may be picked out. If any such Cloth should be brought to any Fuller to be dressed, he is requested to stop it; and whoever secures said Cloth, with the Thief or Thieves so that he, or they, may be brought to Justice, shall have the above Reward, or Thirty Shillings for the Cloth, paid by me.
