Caution to Housekeepers and Others.
ALIENS.
Whereas it appears that many
Aliens have arrived and are actually residing
in this Kingdom, without having obtained a Licence
from the Alien Office, as required by Law: Notice is here-
by given, that it is provided by the Act of the 43rd of His
present Majesty, That every Person who shall receive
into his or her House or Apartment for the Purpose of
lodging or residing any Alien, shall require such Alien to
produce his Licence, and shall within 24 Hours after
such Alien shall have come to reside in such
House or Apartment, deliver a Copy of such Licence to any Jus-
tice of the Peace or Constable residing in or near the
Parish where such House or Apartment shall be situate:
And also, to the Overseers of the Poor of such Parish;
and shall deliver a Notice that such Alien did come to
reside or lodge in such House or Apartment, on a Day
in such Notice to be specified: And in Default of com-
pliance with the foregoing Provisions, every Person so
offending, shall forfeit and lose a Sum not exceeding
TEN POUNDS.
Such Penalty, therefore, will certainly be inflicted on
all Persons who shall be guilty of a Breach of the said
Act after this Public Notice.
By Order of the Magistrates,
SAMUEL YARDLEY, Chief Clerk
J.Downes, Printer, Strand, London.
