At Concert-Hall, Boston, To-morrow evening, 
will be a concert of vocal and instrumental music, 
At which time will be performed an Ode suitable to the
occasion. 
In celebration of the Independency of America.
   Tickets to be had at Mr. Gill's printing office, and
Mess. Draper and Folsom's, at fifteen dollars each.
   [hand pointing right] No tickets to be delivered or money
taken at the Hall doors.
   N.B.  The managers beg leave to apologize for having
deferred the above-mentioned Concert, so long beyond the
evening first appointed--The severity of the season made it
necessary to make large additions in the Hall, for the
accommodation of so large a company as 'tis expected will
attend a Concert founded upon such a subject; those
additions are now nearly compleated, and 'tis hoped the many
conveniencies arising therefrom, will highly compensate for
the disappointment in not being ready according to the
design of the 1st advertisement.  Boston, July 8, 1779.
