 IN February 1827, a man by the name of WILLIAM STONE sold me a horse, which has since that time proved to be stolen.  Said Stone formerly lived in Jackson County, Alabama, and is about five feet 10 or 11 inches high, light colored hair, spare made, and about 25 years of age.  I will give the above reward for any information of the residence of said Stone.
       WILLIAM LESLEY.
