Ranelagh Gardens, Sept. 1.  Many of my friends having
intimated to me, that if I lowered the price of admittance,
(especially during the present scarcity of cash) it would
give general satisfaction:-- Being therefore willing to do
all in my power, (even at the hazard of being a loser) to
acquiesce with every intimation to serve the public; I have
resolved, that the tickets shall pass at the Bar for one
Shilling, which will be accounted for, as so much cash paid
for any thing the possessor is pleas'd to call for.
I return the gentlemen and ladies, who have honoured me with
their presence, many thanks, and hope for a continuance of
their favours, which will be gratefully acknowledged,
By their very humble servant,
[signed] John Jones.
[Hand pointing right] The Concert begins at 7 o'clock this
evening.
