For HALIFAX in NOVA SCOTIA,
The good Ship Hopewell, burthen 250
tons, James Caldwell, master, a prime
sailer, well victualled and manned is now
ready to receive passengers on board, and
will certainly sail the first fair wind
after the 3rd of August next; it is
therefore requested of all who incline to
proceed thither, that they may punctually
appear here at or before the said 3rd of August, when
they shall be immediately received on board.
Application for passage to be made to Col. McNutt,
who takes his passage in said vessel, or to Messrs.
Vance and Caldwell, merchants.
Dated at Londonderry, 24th July, 1761.
N.B. The above ship has been hitherto very
successful, is noted for making short passages, and
the Captain has been long experienced in the passenger
trade; and as there is a great number of passenger
offers, there will likewise be another vessel who will
sail at said time.
