If those Customers for this Paper, who are in Arrears therefor, and live in the near Towns, would be so kind as to send the Publisher hereof a few Load of Wood and Bark, Meal, Corn, Oats, Veal, Legs of Pork, Turkeys, or other Sorts of Provision, they will be as acceptable as the Money some Time hence: And those at a Distance, I can't but think, will take Notice and send a little of that which will procure other Necessaries, or, answer all Things. And as this Paper has been published three Years last October, by the 4th we hope the Promoters of it will see fairly recorded the entire Reduction of the French Interest in North America, as we have given them such a mortal Blow, as not only to make them stagger, but we have actually settled the Point last Year as to their strongest Holds, and seem now to have little else to do but compleatly perfecting the Good Work we are so far and happily advanced in.
