The General Assembly of Rhode Island grant a lottery for the “advancement of religion” in 1794.  Advertised in Boston.

SCHEME of a
LOTTERY—­

Granted by the Honourable General Assembly of the State of Rhode-Island, &c. at their Session held in October, 1794, for the purpose of finishing a HOUSE for PUBLIC WORSHIP—­Consisting of 3000 Tickets, at 3 dollars each, to be paid in the following Prizes, subject to a Deduction of Twelve and an Half per Cent.

1 Prize of 1000 Dollars, is 1000
1 500 500
2 Prizes of 250 500
5 100 500
10 50 500
20 25 500
50 10 500
1000 5 5000
____ ____
1089 Prizes. 9000
1911 Blanks.
____
3000 Tickets.

As this Lottery was granted for promoting Public Worship, and the advancement of Religion, we flatter ourselves that every well-wisher to Society and good Order will become cheerful adventurers.  For those who adventure from Motives of Gain, the Scheme is advantageously calculated, there being less than two Blanks to one Prize—­and Bonds given for the faithful performance of the trust reposed in us.

As a considerable number of the Tickets are already engaged, we expect to draw said Lottery by the first of May next.  Prizes not demanded within six months after drawing will be deemed as generously given towards finishing said House.  The time and place of drawing will be notified—­a List of the Prizes will be immediately published in the Herald of the United States—­and paid on demand.
