Jackass For Sale!  Will be sold at public auction, on the 31st day of February next, precisely at 12 o’clock, a bill due H. N. Gerrish, for sundry articles, against an individual  know as H. J. Rodgers.  Said bill against said Rodgers will be sold to the highest bidder, from the spout of the Town Pump, on said day, and previous notice of the sale will be given by Booth’s crier, who will pass through the streets braying like a Jackass.  No cash is expected of the bidder of said bill, until the time said Rogers pays all bills.  And as the day of judgement by law will be a busy day with him, it is not expected that he will pay said bill until the day after.  The public are invited to call and see said bill at Gerrish and Jones Daguerreotype Gallery, 144 Chapel st. next door below Gerrish’s old stand.

We noticed considerable in circulation in our city concerning Mr. Hopper’s instantaneous process for Daguerreotyping Children, which process consists of nothing more than in applying a little sweet oil to the plate previous to the chemical process—as this process was first introduced into this city by Mr. Gerrish who showed Mr. H. the process, not thinking it a secret worth keeping, as pictures cannot stand taken this way, as the oil on the plate, mingled with the coating, will soon cause it to corrode.  But he has another process, by which Daguerreotypes can be taken as instantaneous, with better finish and durability—which process he is now ready to practice, at his new establishment, 144 Chapel st. next door below his old stand.  Take notice—Mothers wishing good and durable Daguerreotypes of their little children, will do well to call and examine daguerreotypes taken by this process, previous to procuring them elsewhere.  Perfect satisfaction will be given, or no charge, at Gerrish & Jones’ Daguerrean Gallery, 144 Chapel st.  formerly occupied by W. A. Judson.

Advertisement was recorded nineteen times between January 16 to February 15, 1855.
