In "old times" even publishers were sometimes short of money, and ready to
barter with their subscribers. So celebrated a character as Isaiah Thomas,
of the "Worcester Spy," was occasionally obliged to give "hints" to his
"Delinquent Customers and Postriders." The latter were distributers of
papers to country customers.
_To Delinquent Customers._
-->_Serious Times--or the_ PRINTER _without_ Money--_or a
Final Hint to_ Delinquent Customers _and_ Postriders!<--
THE Subscriber has frequently given _Hints_ to his _Delinquent
Customers_ and _Postriders_, that he was in want of Cash and
has repeatedly invited all indebted to him to come forward and
make an immediate settlement, without being put to any _extra
cost_--he now, for the last time, informs all that are
indebted to him for _Newspapers_, _Advertisements_, _&c. &c._
that an immediate settlement must be made, and all who
disregard this notice, may depend upon having their Notes and
Accounts put into the hands of an Attorney.
To accommodate those who cannot pay money, the following
articles will be received until the FIRST of JANUARY, 1803,
viz. _Corn_, _Rye_, _Wheat_, _Oats_, and _Wood_--Those who
have not the above articles, and who cannot make it convenient
to pay the money at present, their NOTES will be received,
payable in _Three Months_, provided they are given previous to
the _Second Wednesday_ in _March_ next.
