Smithfield, March 2.
N. B.  All those persons who purchased at my sale in March last, are hereby 
notified that their obligations became due on the 22d December last, and for 
their convenience he has left their notes with Mr. James Clark of Smithfield, 
for collection -- those who fail in taking up their notes against the first of 
April next, may be certain they will be put into the hands of an officer for

"Ten Dollars Reward.
Strayed from near Keys' Ferry, sometime in the month of Dec. last, a dark bay 
horse, about fifteen hands high, ten or twelve years old, no particular mark 
recollected except some white hairs about the root of his tail.  The horse was 
seen in the neighborhood of capt. John Briscoe's, a few days before Christmas.  
It is very probable he may be in the neighborhood between that place and 
Smithfield.  Any persons finding and returning him to me shall receive the 
above reward.
T. S. BENNETT.
Harper's Ferry, Feb. 23."
