YOUNG LADIES' BOARDING SCHOOL.
MRS. FALKENER
Acknowledges with lively Gratitude the Pleasure she received in the expressed Approbation of her Pupils Improvements at their last public Recitations. She proposes to devote her attentions the ensuing Year to such Young Ladies as may be confided to her Care; and assures the Parents and Guardians who may intrust their Children or Wards to her Management, that every exertion shall be used towards accomplishing them in Literature, and moral and domestic Economy.
The first Day of January next is fixed on for the Reception of Boarders and Pupils; and as Mrs. F. has great Reason to expect a full School, she takes the Liberty of intimating that the earliest Applications will command Preference.
Warrenton, Dec. 10, 1804.
The extraordinary Prices of Provisions compel a small Advance on what was formerly paid for Board, etc. The Terms will therefore be, for Board and Tuition one hundred and five Dollars:—For Day-Scholars twenty Dollars per Annum, one half of which must be paid at Entrance and the Remainder at the Expiration of six Months.
