Caution. Four pence in the pound only, is the whole assessment intended to be raised by the Ripon paving bill, which may be seen at Mr. W. Darnton's bookseller, in full proof that any report to the contrary, is an artful contrivance, to inflame and mislead the inhabitants.
[Ripon,
1790?]
In April 1790 the "Committee who have the conduct of that bill" reported that the "ample subscription already provided for that useful purpose, has as yet been untouched", so the 'Caution' may be earlier than this.
The "Ripon paving bill" refers to an application to Parliament for an act for lighting, paving and removing nuisances in the streets and public highways of the borough of Ripon.
