A CARD.
An Association of Protestant School-Boys present their
compliments to Mr. Timothy, and request the favour of him
(by inserting this card in his next Gazette) to Give Public
Notice, to the gentlemen and ladies of this town, that, as
they have resolved not to use any India Teas after the first
Day of November next, the said Association propose to have
the honour of waiting upon them on that day, to request the
gift of all such teas as may then remain in their houses,
towards making a Bonfire on the memorable 5th Day of the
said month, commonly called Gunpowder Day; when the old
custom is intended to be revived, of exhibiting a piece of
pageantry, to shew their abhorrence and detestation of the
Pope, Pretender, &c. and such of their adherents as would
overturn the Good Old English Constitution.
