CF. HANCOCK, of Bruton-street and New
• Bond-street, Jeweller and Silversmith to the Principal
Sovereigns and Courts of Europe, begs leave to remove an erronec
impression which exists amongst some of his customers, that ho has
retired, or is about to retire, from business. This impression (ch
is entirely unfounded) has probably arisen in consequence of thewhi re-
tirement and selling off of a jeweller of the same name, also of New
Bond-street, but with whom C. F. Hancock is not, and never has
been, in any way connected, either in business or by relationship.
