IP is disagreeable to me to trouble the public vvit.li my private matters, particularly as I am not in the habit of writing newspaper squibs, but I am at this time drawn out, in self defence, by the advertisement over the signature of Charles L. Mathews and Sherwood B Shohee, who have cau tioned the public against trading for a note given to me by them, as the consideration of the note has failed to be complied with on my part I fully complied with the requirements made by r Charles L. Mathews, of me, at the time the note was given. He made further requirements of me afterwards, of which I would not comply with, for he was ful ly cautioned of future results, by me, before we made the trade for which I received his note; and he took the trade on himself, at his own risk, in the presence of Mr. Rufus K. Evans, a respeclaolc gentleman of M icon, Ga., who I fortunately had to go with me to hoar the representations made by me to him. I wish it further understood, that he came to me to make the trade, not mo to him. Seveial other gentlemen applied to me for the same trade, and I gave them the same information that I gave C lurries L. Mathews. Though Mathews said that he had read or studied law, and consequently was acquainted with the laws of Georgia, and under those considerations vve made the trade Now as he has disclaimed trie payment of his note, I cau tion him and all other persons against any intrusion on the property for which the note was given, as the law vvi 11 be strictly enforced against ail tres passers.
