Bbart,

It was from the Salisbury and Winchester Journal. I thought I had copied/pasted it with the date, but apparently not!  When I went back to check the name of the paper, I did find an almost identical article from 1802.  Anyways, it is one of the papers in the British Newspaper Archives, which my library subscribes to, but I believe FindmyPast also gives access to the same newspapers.  I'm not sure if any other sites offer it.
