CLASS 3d. THE Managers present the public with the following SCHEME of a LOTTERY, granted by the Hon. General Assembly of this State, at their January Session, A.D. 1795, for raising a Sum of Money to defray the Expences of Finishing, in a durable Manner, a Street at the North End of this Town. This being the great Continental Thoroughfare and Post Road, and much frequented at all Seasons by Persons on Foot and Horse-Back, and by Teams and Carriages, merits the greatest Attention to its Improvement from Town and Country. The old Road was crooked and inconvenient, the new Street is Streight, and secured in such a Manner as to be passed in Carriages at all Times with Ease and Safety. The Utility and Necessity of this work, so obvious to every one, and the great Chance to Adventurers, there being only _about Two_ Blanks to a Prize, induce the Managers to rely on the Patronage of the Public, for a rapid Sale of the Tickets. 5340 Tickets, at TWO DOLLARS each, are 10,680 Dollars, to be paid in the following Prizes, subject to no Deduction. _Dolls._ _Dolls._ 1 Prize of 1000 is 1000 1 300 300 1 200 200 4 100 are 400 10 50 500 20 30 600 40 20 800 50 10 500 100 6 600 1482 3 4446 ---- ---- 1709 Prizes, 9346 3631 Blanks, 1334 ---- ---- 5340 Tickets, at 2 Dolls. each, is 10680 To commence drawing the 1st June next.
