in June, 1828, he received a letter from a
person in Rochester, containing an adver

l questing Mr. Geat to procure its insertion
lin a Philadelphia paper. At that time he
was a subscriber and advertiser to Poulson's

advertisement with the pay ~ to Mr. Poulson,
who said "he would not publish it for any
