LOWER TRENTON FERRT.
nrHE road on each fide of the river Delaware to,
l the landing is now completed ; good boats are
provided ; the best attendance and quickest dispatch
will be given to all persons who may please to fa
vour it with their custom. In this part of the river
there are no obftruClions, the water is deep and
smooth,, and the shores gravelly, so that the boats,
may at all times be brought so near the shores as
to land their passengers without ever wetting the
foals of their shoes; these advantages, added to the
good attendance and dispatch that will be given in
putting passengers over, it is hoped will entitle the
fubferiber to the favour of the publick, especially
as the ferriage will be as low as at any of the other
ferries. Those coming from Trenton, and who may
please to make use of this ferry, arc desired, inftcad
of turning off to the right hand at the brick house,
which is situated at the entrance of the town, to
keep strait forward down the Croffwicks road about
four hundred yards, and then take the right hand
road which leads to Lan^berton, where most of the
veffeis that pass up and down the river load and un
load their cargoes. Here are two good houses of
entertainment, one kept by Capt. John Clunn, the
other by Mr. Abraham Waglum. The distance
from In re to the house of the fubferiber, whodives
at and keeps the ferry, is about a quarter of a mile.
