George Turner, Hereby informs the public, that he still
continues to sell rum, sugar, cotton wool, coffee &c. at the
same prices as affixed to them in his advertisement in the
last page of this paper, at his shop a few doors past
Clippers-Hall, and I the same street where the remarkable
honest Tinman lives;
. . . [42 lines of sarcastic commentary about Turner's
fellow merchants]  And the little breeches merchant  work
his sheep and lamb skins into deer and moose leather, which
if he can do will be better business than complaining that
not one gallon of rum has sold this week. And let those who
are better acquainted with the first cast of the above
articles, sell at the price they think proper,--without
contending, To conclude,
-----Put them all in a bag-----
When then, Sing Tanterrarar R-g-s all, r-g-s all,
Keep close, keep close,--For fear of Shelaly,
I'd have you keep close,--keep close, keep close.
George Turner
