Kentish Weekly Post or Canterbury Journal - Tuesday 17 October 1809.

Annual letting of the Canteen.

At Deal North Infantry Barrack.

Back office, 10th Oct. 1809.

Notice is hereby given, that the above mentioned "Canteen" will be Let to the highest bidder for the term, from which a lease shall be executed, until 29th September, 1810.

The "Canteen" will be let in the same manner as all other belongings to this department, the particulars thereof may be known by applying to the Barrack Master of Deal North Infantry Barracks, or to this office; but as the said Barracks are now occupied by sick, as an hospital, the privilege of selling liquors cannot be granted, until such occupation, as an Hospital, shall cease; and therefore a proportional part of the sum offered for that privilege will be demanded only from time of the said occupation, as an hospital, ceasing, until 29th September next. The sum offered as rent of the building will be in force during the whole, and the "Canteen" will, upon the execution of the lease, be immediately delivered up to the person whose tender shall be accepted, as a dwelling, and for the purpose of supplying such articles as are not prohibited.

Sealed proposals, with the words "Tender for Canteen," written on the outside cover, will be received at this office, on or before Tuesday the 24th instant, after which any proposal received cannot be noticed.
