REWARD.
Some few Counterfeit Post-Notes of the
Bank of Maryland, having been lately difeo
vered in circulation, and on tracing the fame
were found to come from the back parts of
Virginia, where they probably lirft issued ; to
avoid imposition it is thought necessary to
give the following description of them, by
which they may readily be detested.
*They have the letter D, for their alphabeti
cal mark, at the left hand fide of the Note.
The paper on which they are printed is
more foftand tender, the strokes of the letters,
in the engraving are in gerteral stronger, and
have a darker appearance fnan in the bills.
The signature William Patterlon, is badly
done, the strokes of the letters, are ftiff and
labored, and appear to be painted over with
the pen, as well as the the name.
The value is left blank in the engraving, to
be filled up in writing, so the sum may be
more or less at pleaftire.
No true P.ift-Notes of the alphabetical
mark, abov« deferibed, have been lately if
fijed, and Very few are now in circulation.
The above reward of One Thousand dol
lars will be paid to any person, or persons,
who shall discover, or pr.ofecute to convi&ion,
