[Madison Indiana Republican, Oct. 25, 1832] 



[October 22, 1832] 



A hint to Travellers, 



Respectfully shewing that I, 



SOLON ROBINSON, 



"Pretty well known as a Landlord," 



ON the state road from Madison to Indianapolis, do 

 still continue, (and in consequence of the person 

 who bargained for the purchase of my stand having 

 "backed out,") do still intend to continue to accommodate 

 such of my friends as still intend to "put up" with the 

 most comfortable accomodation that a "log cabin tavern" 

 can furnish. 1 



Travellers will "now and then" find a little very good 

 fresh Venison, and some other things, just fit to keep 

 from starving. 



My house is at Rock Creek, 34 miles from Madison, 13 

 from Vernon, 10 from Columbus. 



My charges are not very low — plenty of Cheaper places 

 — "by their fruits ye shall know them." 



Solon, Jennings, co. Oct 22, 1832.
