By permission of his honour the lieutenant-governor.  For
the benefit of the poor.
The design of this charity is to relieve such poor families
as are not provided for by the public:  It will be
impartially apply'd; and the sum receiv'd with the
gentlemen's names who undertake the distribution of it shall
be publish'd for the satisfaction of those who are generous
enough to contribute to it.
By a company of comedians.  At the new-theatre in Chappel-
Street, this present Monday, being the 25th of January, will
be presented, a celebrated tragedy, written by Shakespear,
call'd 
Othello, Moor of Venice.
To which will be added a comedy of two acts, call'd 
The Lying Valet.
Those who are possessed of tickets are desired to bring them
in at this play, or otherwise they will be of no further use
to them.
