A tall, fresh-coloured Man, very much marked

with the Small Pox, about 26 Years of Age,

"Only detain our Bird five Minutes at the Star,

and if I don't pluck him to the Pin-Feathers,

call me a Bungler, that's all."

having done much Mischief of late,

runs in Everybody's Head.

"You have done Wrong in shooting your

Landlord's Cockerel."

"If you'll stay till I reload, I'll shoot you too."

“It having been represented to the King,
that Richard Turpin did,

on Wednesday, the 4th of May last,
barbarously murder Thomas Morris,

Servant to Henry Thompson,
one of the Keepers of Epping Forest,

and commit other Notorious Felonies
and Robberies, near London,

his Majesty is pleased to promise
His most gracious Pardon to

any of his Accomplices, and a Reward of 200 l.
to any Person or Persons

that shall discover him,
so that he may be apprehended and convicted.

his Face thinner towards the bottom; his Visage short,
