Fowle's New Hampshire Gazette And General Advertiser

Portsmouth, Rockingham County, New Hampshire

What is this article about?

Publishers of the New-Hampshire Gazette urge customers in arrears to pay immediately to support a free and impartial press founded on republican principles, serving as the sentinel of liberty and scourge of tyrants, while maintaining independence from any single person or party.

Merged-components note: The first component appears to be a garbled or partial start to the printers' call for subscribers to settle arrears, which continues directly into the second component; relabeling the first from 'notice' to 'editorial' to match the overall content.
