I beg to offer to the middling and working classesa prime assortment of Game, at the following low charges ; having resolved—although a Peer of the Realm—to compete with any Poulterer, whoeverhe may be, in the moderate price of my articles, j n A Prime Hare 2s. 6d. A Pheasant 3 0 Partridges (the brace) . . . .23 These charges will, I trust, be received as an overwhelming evidenceof my desire to meet the distresses of the poor, and to bring game downto the lowest capacity of pocket. I am honestly enabled to put in theabove articles at the prices affixedj—as the animals cost me scarcely any-thing for keep,—they being principally fed upon_the wheat, oats, andbarley of my tenant-farmers. I remain your obedient servant, * NORMANBLOOD. P.S The highest price given for hare-skins.
