Building on the east side of Chester Depot, is now
open for the accommodation of persons travelling by the
Cars, or otherwise. The Proprietor is well aware, that
nothing short of a well-kept house, will induce custom to
this so recently gotten up; and although very solicitous of
patronage, he refrains from those thousand and one prom
ises which have been made, only to be broken by many of
his "illustrious predecessors.
He confidently hones, that he will be sustained, and upon
trial give that satisfaction and accomodation to the wearied
traveller, thai will send him on his way rejoicing.

"Richmond in by-eone days ' was Richmond as I knew it

at Richmond at the time of mv exit, there was a rare as
