Source relating to Vater's retirement[edit]

Le Sieur Vater Facteur de Clavecins, donne avis, que sur le point de se retirer du Commerce, il lui reste nombre de bons Clavecins à vendre tant de Buckers [sic.] que de sa façon ; ce que l’on pourra voir chez lui à toute heure, rue Phelipeaux prés le Temple, dans la maison du sieur Nicole.
[Mercure de France, July 1759, vol.1, p.211]

The following is my own liberal translation:

Mr. Vater, maker of harpsichords, gives notice that, being at the point of withdrawing from trade, there remains in his possession a number of good harpsichords for sale, by Ruckers as well as of his own making ; which one may view at his home at any hour, Rue Phelipeaux near the Temple, at the house of Mr. Nicole.
