VITHEREAS I am informit! that twp bonds
W given by nic to btockiey Donelfon in
July in the year 1795, for about lix thousand
one hundred and ten pounds V;r s :nia curren
cy each, have been transferred by the laid Do
nelfon and others, and that it is intended to of
fer the said bonds for sale at audlinn j I think
it ray duty to inf. rm the public, what the
circumflances are under which the said bonds
were given, and leave those who.are in poffsflion
of them, or to \vho>n they may be offered, to
judge of the probability of their being paid.
In June 1795, Samuel Love, Jofiah Watson
and myfejf entered into contrail that I should
go to the S. Western Territory (now the state
of Tennessee) for the purpose of making a
purchase of lands ia that country ; the terms
on which the purchase was to be made, were
defined in our agreement, and fifteen days by
stipulation were giveß said Samuel Love and
Jofiah Watson, after I should inform them of
any purchases I Ihould make to determine whe
ther they would be partners in it.
I made a purchase of lands of the said Stock
ley .Donelfon but not on the terms, to which I
was limited by the said agreement with Samuel
Love, Jofiah Watson and myfelf—and although
the purchase exceeded in price, and was not
on the credit agreed on, I thought the bargain
a good one, and supposed Samuel Love and
Jofiah Watson would join me in it. I there
fore signed bonds for the payments, in the fame
manner as I should have done, if I had been cer
tain Mr. Love and Mr. Watson would have ra
tified and confirmed them ; because I did not
chufeas I meant to give them an option of tak
ing part of the said lands, to become solely re
sponsible for the payments, if they should de
termine to accept my offer of part. On my
return those gentlemen refufed to be concerned
at all in my purchase, and at I had received
the deeds jointly in our names, they when re
quested immsdiately conveyed to me, so that
I flood wholly possessed of the lands, and solely
responsible for payments.
At the time I made the pnrchafe of Mr. Do
nelfon, I informed him with whom and in what
manner I was concerned, and that Mr. J>ove
and Mr. Watson becoming responsible for the
payments, depended entirely on themselves.
The purchase I made Was to the amount of
upwards of 70,000 dollars, one thousand dol
lars were paid in cash, fix thousand dollars in
sixty day bills, and upwards of twenty thou
sand dollars in goodsljhe fall following the pur
chase. The two .bonds above alluded to were
given, ene payable in October ninety-fix, the
other in OiSober ninct.y-feven. Thole two last
bonds were given on the conditions expressed in
an agreement delivered at the fame time, and
dated the fame day with the said bonds, the
substance of which is, that the said bonds were
not to be paid, or any part thereof until it ap
peared to the fatisfailion ef the obligors, that
all incumbrances of Jevery nature and kind
whatfoevtr were removed from the lands and
every part thereof, which 1 had purchased of
Mr. Donelfon More than one half of the
lands, and ihofeef the best quality, the Indian
claim is not yet extingiiiihed to, and poffefiion
cannot of course be taken of them.
This incumbrance, perhaps, it was expeiled
when the contrail was made would be removed,
before the said bonds or either of them became
due.
There are other obstacles of less magnitude,
which must be removed before either of the
said bonds will be paid.
At the time the said bonds were given it was
agreed by Mr. Donelfon that he would not dis
pose of them, until it was clearly known that
there were no incumbrances on the lands. It
is not necessary, I should fay, how, he has been
induced to violate this part of our agreement.
I have complied with' the agreements on my
part to be done, agreeable to the letter and
meaning of my contrail, and shall continue to
comply with my contrail on the plainly-ex
pressed and unequivocal terms on which it was
made. Any person interested in the payment
of the said bonds may have cn application a
copy of the coanter agreement herein alluded
to. I have only to add, that I was very much
surprized in a short time after the said bonds
were given to be applied to, to know if they
would be paid ; at that time and whenever af
ter I have been spoken to on the fubjeil, I have
informed those applying of the nature of the
circuniftances on which the payment depended,
and I have never failed to declare in the moll
free and unreftrifled manner the true nature
of my enagements with Mr. Donelfon.

HPHIS edition, published under an order of
A Congress of the United States,- has many,
peculiar advintages. In the former one, each
volume had a separate index, which rendered
the reference in all-cases, difficult arid troublc
fome, and in many alrnoft impoflible. The in
dexeswere, moreover, very injudiciously com
piled. On the contrary, in the present edition,
there is one copious, luminous index, com
plied by Zephaniah Swift, Esq. referring to
all the volumes, and comprifmg in itfelf a com
plete digell of all the laws of the United States.
