THAT the candid may not suppose the foregoing gd
vertifement to have been the art of the fix curators, the
following certificate is now published. It was signed
by five of them, and given to the mafier of that aca
demy, the very evening before he set out from \Lancaf
ter.
Mr. Andrew Frown having for above eighteen monhs
past resided in the borough of Lancaster, in Imn/ylva
nia, and during that time had the direafon of a (choot
in the said borough, and he now being about to leave
it, with a view of placing himfelf in some lets fati, org
and mote advantageous branch of business: Wete
fubferiber# beg leave to mention to tho e whom it may
concern, that Mr. Brown's conduH as a teacher, and
attention to the youth who have been placed under hi,
tuition, have been such, as in our opinion, jufiy en
title him to the esteem and acknowledgments of the pa
rents and friends of those children who have had toe
advantage of his school. The proficiency made by
those who have been placed by ns under his care, hath
equalled onr most sanguine wishes and expeaarions;
and while we have had the fatisfaßion of observing
their progrefi in their differe < fudies, we have also
had the pleasure of marking in him, a proper regard
to their morals and behaviour.
It is with regret we part with f able a teacher: tut
he goes attended With our regard and bed wishes.
