Robert Farr, At his Cheap Bread Manufactory, No 18, St. Martin's Le Grand, begs leave to inform his Customers and the Public in general, that the Shop now opened against him is supported by a set of artful over-grown full price bakers (as they stile themselves), for the sole purpose of stopping any Bread from being Sold under the full Price in that Neighbourhood. - The Names of them will be given in a few Days by a Hand Bill, wherein Rt. Farr will inform the Customers of those Gentlemen where they may have the same Bread at Seven Pence, that they are paying Eightpence-Halfpenny for, being Three Halfpence in the Quartern saving to them. - Now, the Opposition to his Shop having arisen from the Motives above-mentioned, R. F. is convinced that his Customers will not go from him for the triffing Advantage of One Halfpenny in the Quartern, which will cease the Instant they have effected their Purpose, that is, when no Bread can be bought under the full Price. R. F. likewise informs the Public, that he is Building with all speed, Two large Ovens, when he is determined to send Bread Home to Private Families at the same Price, on being Paid on delivery, such advantageous Terms never offered to the Public before.
