Yesterday I happened to be looking over an old Bristol paper (Sarah
Farley's _Bristol Journal_, Saturday, June 11, 1791), and the name of
Longfellow, which I had before only known as borne by the poet, caught my
eye. At the end of the paper there is a notice in these words:
"Advertisements are taken in for this paper by agents in various
places, and by Mr. Longfellow, Brecon," &c.
