13We, the undersigned, announce to the citizens of Hamilton and vicinity, that we are the only dealers in this city that plant oysters in Princess Bay, and Fair Haven; that all the genuine Princess Bays which are sold here came from our House, and we will sell them the coming season at the same prices that other dealers sell an inferior oyster.
15Every Keg is marked with the True Quantity it Contains.
17All parties or private families that may want any GENUINE OYSTERS can leave their orders at our store, and have them delivered at their dwellings without delay. To test the truth of our assertion that "our Oysters are the best," we will leave the question to those who may test them to be the judges; and if what we say is not true the money will be refunded.
19We thank the public for the generous patronage heretofore received from them, and hope we shall hereafter merit their confidence by an earnest endeavor to be on hand to supply every want that may be craved by those who wish to enjoy the luxury of eating the
