\ WHEREAS very Urge and heavy dehts are justly

Moore, ,and from Blair M'Clenachan in. his separate
capacity ; to which, by the laws of the land, all the
joint a. well as separate property of the said Gentle
men, is, ind ought to be, liable. And whereas
it i« clearly and fatisfa&orily ascertained, that mr.
Blair M'Clenachan, of the said firm, has conveyed
away to mr. "John H. Uvjlon, his fon-i* law, to his
daughter, raifs M'Clenachan, and to his foil, George
M'Clenachan, several large and valuable real estates,
as well *• eonfidcrable personal property, in the city
and county of Philadelphia, in the county of Lancas

elsewhere, with a view, as it is apprehended, to de

This s, therefore, to forewarn all persons whomso
ever, agaiaft the purchafe'from the said grantees, or
either «f them, of any portion of the said real or per

TO THE PUBLIC.
THE eaation introduced into the public prints,
warning all perfonr, againlt pur' hafwjj from the
grantees of Blair M'Clenachan, any portion of the
large, real and perianal estates he conveyed away to
his fon-io law and to his ehildren was the result of
a deliberation had up©» the fubjed\ by a general and
numerous meeting of the creditors 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 subscribers by
those creditors: a step which it would have been a
breach of duty and honor in them to have omitted.
The very fiateraent of the fa£i therefore mull dis
pel the imputation that it was either " precipitate
or visdiftive." It originated in a defiie to feoure
the property of the debtor as a fund for the pay
ment of his just debts. It was fan&ioned by the
advice ofco»neil as a measure ncccjfary to the fafety
of the creditors. If the advertisement hat been
injurious to Mr. M'Clenachan he owes that injury
to his own unjiiltiliable conduct, not to the iub
fciibers who have merely puUiftisd the truth in
terms as mild as the fafit would admit, and who
mean to investigate in a high court of justice the
validity of those purchases of which Mr. M'Cle
nachan so confidently fpcaks.
The subscribers therefore are bound by a sense
of duty to the areditors in general to repeat their
camion against purohafing of those grantees or
eitfier of them, and to extend the terms of it to a
porchafe from any other persons (if such there bej
whom Mr. M'Clenachan may have made similar
conveyances.
