City of New-York, 30th of June, 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 (without exception) to
be far the most rural retreat near this city:  As an
addition thereto, a compleat band of musick is engaged, to
perform every Monday and Thursday evenings, during the
summer season, beginning at seven o'clock; and a commodious
hall in the gardens for dancing, with drawing-rooms neatly
fitted up; the very best of wine and other liquors . . .
[signed] John Jones.
N.B.  When any evening proves bad, the concert will be the
next.  Tickets to had at the gardens, and at the Queen's
Head Tavern, near the exchange.
