John Gualdo, (in Front-street, next door but one to the Bank
Meeting-House) has for sale, a few violins, German flutes,
guittars, mandolins, spinets, claricords, together with a
variety of music strings, &c. &c. He has also engaged some
able people, who, under his directions, improve and repair
every kind of musical instruments in a neat manner, and on
very reasonable terms---He has in his house a German
gentleman, who teaches to play on the violin, violoncello
and French horn, at Twenty shillings per month---Likewise he
has a servant boy who copies music; therefore if any
gentleman or lady should want a particular song, sonata,
trio, duet, solo, minuet, or country dance, they may be
supplied with, without buying the whole book, in which such
song, sonata, &c. might be printed--He adapts and composes
music for every kind of instrument, as usual---Next October
at farthest, Mr. Gualdo intends to set off for Europe, where
he is going to transact some particular and advantageous
business for himself and other gentlemen of this town,
therefore begs the favour of every person indebted to him to
make a speedy payment, and, in so doing, they will enable
him to discharge his own debts before he leaves America, for
which part of the world every free man, in his right senses,
should have an everlasting regard, for reasons before now
quoted by gentlemen more learned than the subscriber.
