NOTICE

 ALL persons are forewarned against trading for a Note of hand, drawn by John Martin, in favor of John M'Carver, and Monce Gore of East Tennessee, for three hundred and fifty Dollars; payable on the first day of March next, dated January 1st, 1828.

 As the Consideration for which said note was given, has proved to be unsound, I am determined not to pay unless compelled by law.
