Whereas the Nossels of most of the Pumps in Market Street, and several other Streets of this City, were taken out and carried away, on Saturday-night the 24th of this Instant, and at several Times before, by some evil-minded, dissolute Persons; which might have been of most pernicious Consequence, if Fire had happened to break out before they could have been renewed. The Union Fire-Company of Philadelphia, do hereby offer a Reward of Five Pounds to him or her who shall discover (so that they may be convicted at the Mayor’s Court) any of the Persons concern’d in removing the said Nossels, or doing any other Damage to the Pumps in the Streets, whereby they may be render’d incapable of discharging Water.

By Order of the Company,
