The last time of performing. Horsemanship, By Mr. Bates, the
Original Performer,
Who has had the honour of performing before the Emperor of
Germany, the Empress of Russia, the King of Great-Britain,
the French King, the Kings of Prussia, Portugal, Sweden,
Denmark, and the Prince of Orange; also, at the Courts of
Saxony, Bavaria, Brunswick, Mecklenburg, Saxe Goths,
Holbourghausen, Anspach, and every other court in Germany;
at all which he received the greatest applause, as can be
made manifest by the certificates from the several courts,
now in his possession, and is allowed, by the greatest
judges in the manly arts he professes, to excel any horseman
that ever attempted any thing of the kind.
Being prevented last week by the bad weather, On Wednesday
next, the Third day of March instant, he will perform, at
the upper end of Meeting-Street, above forty different
feats, greatly surpassing any of his former exhibitions.
The doors will be opened at ten o'clock, and he mounts
precisely at eleven.
He will take it as a particular favour, if gentlemen will
not suffer and dogs to come with them.
Tickets at one dollar each, to be had at the bar of the
Coffee-House, at Holliday's Tavern, and at the place of
performance. The new tickets issued for last week, will be
received, but none of the former ones.
