[Ad gives a warning of a (homosexual) vagrant who has slept
with several youths and infected them with venereal disease. 
Passes for a preacher, named John Jones.]
He makes and sings, off a hand, songs on various subjects;
and many are so imprudent as to give him money for his
doggrel stuff.  It is said he had a good deal of money given
him for singing at the last Concord Court, and the last
Court at Newbury-Port.
Ipswich, Nov. 22, 1769.
