Church Lottery.
THE peculiar circumstances of a gentleman
who had undertaken to itifpofeof a propor
tion of the tickets in the New-Brunfwick Church
Lottery, having, in his opinion, rendered it incon
venient for him further to proceed in the sale
thereof, betWCeh eleven and twelve hundred tick
ets are unexpectedly returned to the Re&or,
Church-Wardens and Vestry-men. This lays the
Managers under the necessity oi further adjourning
the drawing of the Lottery, until the fifteenth day
of O&ober next, that they may have time to trans
mit these tickets to the parts of the state where they
aie applied for, and leceive the returns. As there
are but few tickets besides these remaining on
hand, all persons who are disposed tp promote the
pious objett of this Lotteiy, or to take a chance
for the prizes therein, are rcquefted to (upply them
selves by the firft of O&ober; and the gentlemen
appointed to dispose of them, are defned to return
those to the Managers which then remain unfold,
to answer the applications of some gentlemen in
the neighbouihood, who are poltponed to this re
source for a supply.— And notice is hereby given,
that the tickets not returned to the Managers by
the eighth day of O&ober, will be considered as
at the nfk of the holders.
N. B. Robert Morris, Esq. of New-Brunf
■wick, is duly chosen one of the Managers of the
said Lottery, and has given security and qualified
agreeably to law. (cpiOi)
