Moore, aild from Blair M'Clenachan in his separate capacity ; to which, by the laws of the land, all the joint ai well as Separate property of the said Oen'le. men, is, and ought to be, liable. And \fherea« it is clearly and fatisfa&orily ascertained, that mr. Blair M'Clcrtacaan, of the [aid firm, has conveyed away to sat. John H. Hvjlon, his fbn-in law, to hit '> daughter, miss M'Clenachan, and to his son, Georg* M'Clenachan, federal large and,.valuable real estates, as well as coufidcrable perianal property, in the city es and county of Philadelphia, in the county of Lancaf. ter, in the county of Ncw-Caftle on Delaware, and elsewhere, with a view, as it is apprehended, w de ,p feat the Creditors in the recovery of their just debts.— ' J9 This is, therefpre, to forewarn all persons whamfo* >y ever, against the purchase from the fiid grantees, or ir either of them, of any portion as the said real or per >o for.al property, as the most vigorous mealbres will ce without delay be taken to render the fame liable to thejufl demands of the Creditors.

Fijher, Philadelphia, December 17th, 1796. icth.J TO THE PUBLIC. nd THE caution introduced into the public prints, warning all persons against j»urcbafiog from the grantees of Blair M'Clenachan, any portion of the — large, real and personal estates he conveyed away to bis fon-in law and to his children the refalt of j a deliberation had upon the fubjeft by a general and numerous meeting of the cieditors as well of Blair M'Clenachan and P. Moore as of Blair M'Clena chan individually. It was no more than an execu. tion of that trust confided in the fubferibers by those creditors s a step which it would have been a breach of duty and honor in them to have omitted. The very statement of the fadt therefore must dif. the pel the imputation that it was either " precipitate or vindiflive." It originated in a desire secure the property of the debtor at a fund for the pay. ment of his just debts* It was fan&ioned by the advice of council as a measure nectjfary to the fafety of the creditors. If the advertisement has been injurious to Mr. M'Clenachan he owes that injury to his own unjuftifiable conduct, not to the sub» fcribers who have merely published the truth ia terms as mild as the f»A would admit, and wh» mean te investigate in a high court of justice the validity of those purcbafes of whinh Mr. M'Cle nachan so confidently fpeskt. The fubfenbert therefore are bound by a sense of duty to the creditors in general to repeat their caution against purehafing of those grantees or either of them, and to extend the terms of it to a the purchase from any other persons (if such there be) m ?" ta whom Mr. M'Clenachan may have made similar conveyances.
