Mrs. Ritchie, having now neatly finished fitting up the above hotel in a new and comfortable manner, will be happy in affording accommodations to strangers, travellers [sic] and others, who may favor her with a call, in a manner and upon such terms as she humbly trusts will meet their entire approbation. As this establishment is almost entirely new, and fitted up in good style, it is the intention of the hostess so to conduct it, as to ensure a continuance of public patronage.

In pursuance whereof she begs to assure the Public, that although her rooms will be provided and her table supplied with every requisite for the comfort  and convenience of her guests, and her Bar store with the choicest liquors, wines, &c. possible to be obtained, their comfort and repose will not be liable to any turbulent of undue inter-uption [sic] as all habitual tipling [sic] and licentious excesses wherever will be promptly discouraged and excluded from the The Simcoe Hotel, and that her Stabling attendance, &c., will to the likes accord with the above regulations. And further, that her most grateful recollections and acknowledgements will be secured to those have occasion to visit the town who may please to honor her with their commands.

A limited number of Boarders may be accommodated at the The Simcoe Hotel.

Simcoe, Nov. 4th, 1840.
