It is a duty incumbent on me, before I resign the conduct of
this Gazette, to return my sincere and most grateful
acknowledgements to all our customers, and to the publick in
general, through whose favour the Press has been for a
number of years supported, . . .
Immediately after Christmas, I shall begin doing business
for myself, and intend to print a Gazette as soon as I am
furnished with a moderate number of customer; . . .
Meanwhile, I have opened a large and valuable collection of
New Books, amongst them a great variety for the use of
schools; which, together with a well chosen parcel of
Musick, for the Harpsichord, Violin, &c. and a number of
Stationary Articles, will be disposed of on the easiest and
very best terms. . . [12 lines]
[signed] Alexander Purdie.
