And whereas it i« clearly tnd fatisfaflorily ascertained, that mr. Blair M'Clenacban, of the fsid firm, has conveyed away to mr. Job« H.

Thornaj Fitz/lmons, Philip Nicklin, / Jfanc Vharton, >- Committee. Wiiliam M'Mvrtrie, I Samuel W. Fijber, J Philadelphia, December 17th, 1796. joth.J THE caution introduced into the public prints, warning all perfoiy. aga.ii-ft purchasing from the grantees of Blair M'Clenachan, any portion of the largej real ani personal efiatcs he conveyed to his fon-in law and to his children was the result of a deliberation had upan the fubjeft 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 fubferibers by those creditors: a step which it would have been a breach of duty and honor in them to have omitt*<l. The very statement of the fait therefore mult dis pel the imputation that it was either " precipitate •r vindi&ive." It originated in a desire to secure the property of the debtor as a fund for the pay ment of his just debts. It was fanfilioned by the adviee of council as a measure ncccjfary to the fafety of the creditors. If the advertisement ha 4 been injurious to Mr. M'Clenachan he owes that injury to his own unjnftiliable condutt, not to the fub feribers who have merely published the truth in terms aa mild as the fa£t would admit, and who mean to invettigate in a high court of justice the validity as those purchases of which Mr. M'Cle nachan so confidently speaks. The fubferibers therefore are bound by a feofe of duty to the creditors in general to repeat their caution agai»ft purohaGng of those grantees or eithjtref them, and to extend the terms of it te a porchafe from any other persons (if fuck there be) to wbem Mr. M'Clenachan may have madt similar eanveyanoej. mwf2wmtht-f.
