Vaux-Hall Gardens, have been newly fitted up in a very
genteel, pleasing manner, are pleasantly situate, and now
open for the reception of ladies, gentlemen, &c, and will be
illuminated every evening in the week; coffee, tea, and hot
rolls at any hour in the day, neat wines and other liquors,
with cakes, as usual.  A concert of musick vocal and
instrumental, will shortly be performed twice every week, of
which due notice will be given.  Contiguous to the garden
there is a very good long room, convenient for a ball, or
turtle entertainment; also dinners or suppers, dressed in
the most elegant manner, on timely notice being given to the
publick's already much obliged, and very humble servant,
Samuel Francis.  *** The gardens would have been opened
earlier in the Spring, but on account of the Theatre.
