City of New-York, 3d July, 1766.  Renelagh Gardens, (for
breakfasting, as well as the evening entertainment of ladies
and gentlemen,) are laid out, at a great expence, in a very
genteel, pleasing manner; and judged to be far the most
rural retreat any way near this city.-----As an addition
thereto, a complete band of music is engaged to perform
every Monday and Thursday evenings, during the summer
season, (beginning at 7 o'clock;) a commodious hall in the
garden for dancing, with drawing rooms neatly fitted up; the
very best of wine, and other liquors, mead, sillabubs, &c. .
.  [signed] John Jones.
N.B.  When an evening proves bad, the concert will be the
evening fo[   ]ng; tickets to be had at the gardens, and at
the Queen's Head Tavern, near the exchange.
