And also Two Acres of excellent GRASS LAND (be the
same more or less) contiguous to the said Dyeworks and Dwelling-
house.
The above Works, although possessing so considerable a
Frontage to the Calder, are situated on such a level as precludes
their being at any time inconvenienced by Floods, and being placed
higher up the stream than any other similar Establishment,
they possess all the advantages of the purest supply of Water from
a River so justly celebrated for its Dyeing Properties.
The Works also possess facilities for the transit of goods rarely
to be met with, as independently of their contiguity to the River
and the Canal, they are within Two Hundred and Fifty Yards of
the Manchester and Leeds Railway, and also adjoin the Turn-
pike-road.
In the immediate vicinity are several working Collieries, from
whence fuel may be obtained at One Shilling per Ton.
The whole of the Buildings have been erected within the last four
years, and are arranged upon a plan admitted by the most competent
judges to be equal, if not superior, to any other Dyehouse in the
kingdom.

*** The Bouquet Duke of York is the last new fashionable
perfume of the season 1844 ; but though the last, is net the least
i nperfcction, as it happily combines the preceding excellence of all
the royal bouquets, with the delicate and delicious fragranoe of the
white moss rose.

Let him who is a true born gentleman,
And stands upon the honour of his birth
If he suppose that I have pleaded truth—
From off this briar pluck a white rose with me.
