Demerary
Ferry. [heading]
In
consequence of the arrival of the quantity of small silver specie, the
complaint of the want of change must cease.
It
is therefore hereby made known, to all those whom it may concern, that in
future no person will be ferried over without immediate payment (those who have
engaged by the year, of course are not meant to be included).
It
is also requested that those who are indebted to the Ferry, will pay the same
before the 31st inst. in order to avoid those disagreeable occurrences which,
in case of non-payment, must ensue.
March
10th. Lelyveld.
All
those who have incurred Fines by Non-Attendance at the Militia Parades, are
hereby desired immediately to call and pay the same; that being the only way to
prevent the adoption of measures, which, however disagreeable to the feelings
of the Undersigned, as it is his duty, he otherwise must have recourse to.
Demy,
March 10. G. A. F. Van Kinschot.
Lieut.
