IT having been represented to the County Com
missioners by the Deputy Attorney General for
Lancaster County, that a brutal and outrageous
assault was committed Upon Mrs. Susan Finefrock,
residing in Macheim township, in said county, on
Friday afternoon, December 28th, 1549, by some
person who inflicted a number of blows upon the
head and face of Mrs. Finefrock with some blunt
instrument, lacerating-her face and scalp in such a
manner as to put her life in jeopardy, and it, is yet
doubtful whether she will recover from these injuries;
and the same person then robbed the house of Mrs.
Finefrock, and, it appearing also, that this outrage
was committed in broad day, at the side of a public
highway, and in a populous section of the county.
The Commissioners of Lancaster county deem it
due to the ends of public justice, that every effort
should be made to detect and punish the offender,
and therefore offer Fifty Dollars reward for his ar
rest and conviction. 0
Mrs. Finefrock describes the person who com
mitted the outrage, as a foreign German, about 30
years of age, some 5 feet 7 or 8 inches high,rather
stout, and full in the face, without whiskers, with
long, dark hair, and thinks he was slightly pock
marked. The person wore, at the time, a blue
sack coat, blueish vest, and light colored striped or
flowered pantaloons, a cloth cap. and boots. He
spoke rapidly and in a loud tone of voice. He car
ried with him from the house 6ome receipts and
papers belonging to Emanuel Finefrock, and 87*
ceuts in silver. JOHN WITMER,

wafers, sealing wax, and a host of elegant articles'

Trustee’s Sale of Taluable Real
Estate.
WATER POWER, COTTON AND WOOLLEN
Ey virtue of a decree and order of the High
Court of Chancery of the State of Maryland, the
undersigned, as Trustee, will sell at public auction
from the Court House door in Elkton, on SATUR
DAY the 26th ol January next, all that very valua
ble Cotton and Woollen Factory, Grist and Saw
M-lls, together with 89 ACRES OF LAND, more
or less, of arable and woodland, being' part ol the
Real Estate whoreot the late Col. VVm. Garrett,
died seized.
This property lies 7 miles north of the town of
Eikton, in Cecil county, Maryland, and about the
same distance from the Philadelphia, Wilmington
and Baltimore Railroad, and other public convey
ances to the cities of Philadelphia and Baltimore,
and is commonly known by the name of
GARRETT' S FACTORIES
The buildings consist of a Cotton and Woollen
Factory, nearly new—Bs feet long by 35 feet wide,
and 3 stories high ; a Grist and Saw Mill in good
repair; 7 Tenant Houses, to be occupied by the
operatives in the Factory: a MANSIONJ&gJL,
HOUSE for the proprietor, together with|S*jlffl
a good and substantial Farm House ; also *■■**
a large and commodious Barn with Stabling beneath,
Granary, Corn-crib, aDd other convenient and ne
cessary out-buildings, all in good repair. There is
also a good Apple Orchard on the farm. The arable
land is in a high state of cultivation, and all under
good fencing. There is sufficient wood upon this
property to supply necessary fuel.
The Cotton and Woollen Factory has been in
constant and successful operation for nearly 30
years past, with the exception of a few months in
the-year 1840, when it was re-built upon an im
proved plan. Its connections are extensive, and it
is well known as one of the very best establishments
of the kind in the State. It is situated on the Big
Elk, a copious and powerful stream of water at all
seasons of the year. The neighborhood is remark
ably healthy, and noted for the purity of its air and
water. There are several places of worship of
various denominations within a convenient distance,
together with well conducted schools. Delaware
College is located in the town of Newark, about
4 miles distant, and affords an excellent opportunity
for the attainment of the higher branches of edu
cstion.
There are no other Cotton and Woollen Factories
within many miles, it will therefore be seen that
this property presents many inducements to persons
desirous of engaging in the business.
Further description is deemed unnecessary, as
those who think of purchasing can view the prem
ises for themselves.. Any other information will be
willingly given upon application to Mrs. Sarah Ann
Garrett, residing on the premises, or to the sub
scriber.
Letters on the subject add-essed to the subscriber
at Elkton will meet with prompt attention.
THE TERMS OF SALE, as prescribed by the
decree are, one-third of the purchase money to be
paid in cash on the day of sale, another third in
six months, and the remaining third in twelve
months from the day of sale. Thecredit payments
to be secured by bond with approved security to
the Trustee. HIRAM M’CULLOUGH,

cree, I hereby give notice to the creditors of Wm.
Garrett, late of Cecil county, deceased, to file their

cated in the Chancery Office at Annapolis, within 4
months from the said 26th day of January next.

LANCASTER TOWER HALL CLOTHING
STORE.—Just received, together witli the
latest Fall and Winter Fashions, the largest and
most splendid assortment of FALL and
GOODS ever before exhibited in Lancaster county,
at M. T. Ford’s Tower Hall Clothing Store, oppo
site Vankenan’s (late Scholfield’s) Hotel.
The citizens of Lancaster county, and strangers
who may be visiting the city, are respect ully in
vited to an examination of this magnificent stock,

criptions, Hosiery, Suspenders, Gloves, and in fact
everything necessary to complete a gentleman’s
wardrobe, and at prices that no others in the trade
attempt to compete with.
Remember, gentlemen, that this is no trade
clothing shop, as the proprietor has from the start
set his face against orders of all kinds, and conse
quently does not put a high tariff on his.customers
for fear they may have a builder’s order, but sell
ing exclusively for cash, he can and does sell his
goods for less than it costs most of the Tailors to
manufacture them. So you see your true interes
lies in patronizing the Tower Hall ofM.T.FORD,
North Queen street, opposite the Franklin Hotel.
