Mary - another ad, this time 3/7/1861 Temple Bar Hotel Ford Street Beechworth JOHN WILLIAMS AND HENRY RAY. Bet to inform their friends the public that they have taken the above hotel and in soliciting their patronage would call attention to the unsurpassed facilities for accommodating the public. THEIR GREAT IDEA is that a good article supplied to a discriminating will induce that man not only to continue his patronage but recommend the house to his friends. to profit by this it is WILLIAMS & RAY'S intention to keep only first class SHERRY BRANDY GIN WHISKEY ALE &C. and to give a casual caller the same brand as they would supply to any old customers. The Private Hotel attached to the premises only wants to be seen to be appreciated by wedding and other parties requiring privacy with good accommodation. The best and largest STABLING in the district is attached to the Hotel Hot Suppers every night after half-past Nine. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Denise" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 30, 2005 4:02 PM Subject: Re: [HC] OMA > In June 1861, Prince of Wales Hotel R R Jones was the District Publican. > This is from a list of publicans I've been given, not extracted from the > newspaper. > > The Temple Bar in Jun 1861 was John Williams - per the list.
