on suspicion!
G 1 EORGIA, THOMAS COUNTY
I Taken up on suspicion, a man who assigns his name
Dr. T. J. Franklin Mitchell, who this community sus
pects and believes to be guilty of having been commuting
many egregions and unlawful offences, to wit; that of being
concerned with Indians, Negroes, nr others, in committing
murders and robbing; and from his n< t being able to give a
satisfactory account of himself, suspect him to be guilty of
many outrages. W e would bet e observe, that from evidence,
he has denied positive facts, with regard to his private char
acter, which further creates suspicion; also, he was found
traveling through the woods in this county, near the place
where a family was killed in Irwin county, secentlv : also,
near where a Mr. Hancock, lives in this county, and who
was shot at with three guns, though no damage done ex
cept that of plundering and burning his honse ; he is a man
of quite bad countenance; his arm is-wounded and now
wears a band constantly ; his supposed age is 40 to 50 years ;
stout and heavy built; will weigh from 160 to ISO pounds!
Information also has reached, that such a character has been
advertised, and a reward of some considerable amount.
Perhaps it would be proper to remark, that it is his left arm
which is lamed. The said Mitchell taught school in the
upjier part of this county some two years siuce, for a short
time. He was delivered to me for detention in Jail till he
should give some honorable account of himself. If he has
any friends who know him to be clear of said charges, they
are requested to give immediate information; also, if anv
person know any thing against his character, he will much
oblige by such inhumation, stating the particulars.

NOTICE THIS!
I HAVE this day learnt from good authrrily. that the
agent of Mr. Griswold, of Clinton, Jones county, has
circulated a report that my Cotton Gin Factory was burnt.
I am thankful to say that such a statement is entirely false ;
my business of making Cotton Gins is in full operation. I
will say to the farmers, that I am making a superior article
of Cotton Gin3, varying in price from €2 25, per saw, to
$3 50. I know such statements as the above are all done to
injure me, though I could not expect any thing better of him.
I think he must be friendly to the present Administration; I
am a Hard Cider man myself.

pair, and the land well adapted to the culture of cotton
and corn, and grain of all kinds; and as to health, none more
so in Georgia —well watered—in fact it cannot be beat for
good water and a plenty of it. Should any person wish surli
a settlement, they will of course look for themselves—we
therefore deem it unnecessary to say any thing farther about
it. We should be pleased to sell soon, so as to enable us to
make our other arrangements.
