The First Drawing for £2000, and the Second Drawing for £3000 filled before the advertised time for drawing. The Company were induced to make this Third Grand Drawing for £3000, m consequence of the great success, and. also the confidence gained from the public since opening these Hamburg Dratoings.

Total Amount, £3000. 240 Money Prizes. The Grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a Prize, as it is so drawn that a prize must come out to every 25 numbers, and and the chances are m favour of the investor drawing a large prize, as there are 160 large prizes against 80 small ones. To any investor of £2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the Head Poize or any other may be drawn by any investor of 10/. The Company would not presume, to tell the public that they have a number of chances and can win a number of prizes for a single investment of 1 0/. The large bulk of the Money m this Grand Drawing is not given away m one big prize, as it is m the Horse Consultations, but yon will observe m this Hamburg Drawing - that the £3000 is fairly proportioned into 240 Prizes giving every shareholder an equal chance of getting a good prize. This Hamburg Draiving is one of the most novel, and will be conducted on the fairest principle possible, so as to g : ve entire public satisfaction. This Third Grand Drawing for £3000 will take place under the supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen-, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible after the drawing.
