• Mr. Poole begs to acquaint the nobility, gentry, and others : that from the liberal and extensive encouragement which he has experienced in the present undertaking, and from the promise of future patronage and support, he designs publishing a Second number of views of the principal seats in the vicinity of Reading; which he trusts will be found not unworthy the attention of all those who may be in possession of this, his first number. Of the merits of the present work, it does not become him to say any thing. It is before the public:-let it speak for itself. But it is his wish; nay-he conceives it his duty, to offer some apology for the protracted delays which this work has unavoidably experienced. He has been the victim of ill-health during the greater part of the time he has been engaged in this work; which, together with other trivial circumstances, has impeded its publication thus long. He can only say, it is not probable that the like causes can ever again occur; and he hopes, upon consideration, this will be admitted as a sufficient apology. Mr. P. likewise begs to acquaint the subscribers to the present work, and the public in general, that he is now engaged in engraving an extensive and picturesque view of the town of Reading, taken from Red-Lane Hill, from a drawing by Mr. Robinson, whose abilities as an artist are too well known to need the recommendation of encomium. - The Drawing may be inspected at Messrs. Snare and Co's. Minster-Street, Reading; where books are opened for the reception of subscribers' names. The size of the Drawing is 21 inches by 151/2 inches. Price 10s. 6d. No money is required till the Print is ready for delivery. Reading, Dec. 8, 1798
