Those who have been discovered are Tru e m-1! Harrifon, Joleph Witcomb, said now to re -- fide in the county of Saratoga ; Thomas Kelly and 1 several othert who go under fiilitious names. It is ■- supposed that the lands offered fcr sale on those fa i» bricated titlti, are at lcaft worth fifty thousand - doliars. Such as we have a&ual knowledge of are ' 'f as follows : Lots No. II and ;a, Ot/ego patent, thousand acres each, the atftuai property of William Uellwyn, now of London ; lots No. 58 and 64, lame patent, thousand acres each, the property of Mr. Chauciont, now of Paris, and fames Avtrill and others, e*l tni* State. There is fonie grounds 1 I, to suppose that the lands of RichardgWclls and Charles Wharton, of Philadelphia, are under their , | management.—The Printers will do well to give . j tbi»a place in their papers, as well to caution the , ; public against purchafir.g those lauds, as also to de r 8 ( prive those men in future from imposing on indivi dual, which their educatiou and address have en abled them to do heretofore. Witcomb has been afhopkeeper of some nore in this eountry.
