WHEREAS a combination men ,in this county have undertaken to enrich th«m felves,by fabricating titles to fundr/ valuable trails of land, the property of gentlemen living in New Yolk, Philadelphia, London and Paris, for which j trails of knd large futns of money have been paid ; to tlu.fi- fraudulent men, by innocent purihafers I It is therefore just that public information lhould kt given, to the end, that the injured may feekre drefs while the raen have property, and are to be found. Those who have been difcovcred are Tru man Harrifon, Joseph Witcomb, said now to re side in the county of Saratoga ; Thomas Kelly several othcrt who go under fictitious names. It is fuppotcd that the lands offered for faleon those fa bricated titles, are at least worth fifty thoufjind dollars. Sufh as we have actual knowledge of are as follows : Lots No. II and Iz, Otfego patent, thousand acres each, the adual property of William Dcllw)Q, now of London ; lots No. 58 and 64, fame patent, thousand acres each, the property of Mr. Chaumonf, now of Paris, and James A venll and others, bl this State. There is*fome grounds to suppose that the lands of Richard Wells and Charles Wharton, of Philadelphia, are under their management.—The Printers will do well to give this a place in their papers, as well to caution the public against purchasing those lands, as also to de prive those men in future from imposing on indlvi duafs, which their education and address have en abled them to do heretofore. Witcomb has been 1 a shopkeeper of some note in this country. The following affidavits will fct in a clear point of view the wkkfdncfs of those men, which when tbe public have perused, will induce them to ex cuse the interference of Wm. COOPER.
