P. S. He requests those persons wi:h whom Hi deeds
might be lodged, to acquaint him with the ooffeffion
thereof; and a voluntary return of them win be ac
knowledged Mith gratuity and esteem; but if those,
callous to humanity, and void cf good behaviour, he'd
this invitation as feeble, the laws of my country shall
reßify their error.
Y H E fubferiber being charged by her hufbard
A JACOB BURCKARDT, in the public Newspa
pers, ^ith milbehaviour and illiberal conduft towards
him, and that malicious persons have cajoled her to
defraud him of his deeds-finds it necessary, in justice
to her own ch^ r a&er and good name, to affu re all good
persons that there is no just foundation for the charg
es alledged against her by her said husband ; that she
always lived with him and faithfully did the' duties of
a wife, and never left the house till his usage obliged
he r to fly to save her bones, that they have lived hap
pily together till within these fix months, when his
acquaintance and connections with another woman by
whom he has a child, caused this diflurbance, and
having more affeaion for this woman than his lawful
wife, he is seduced, by her pe r suasions, to ill-treat,
abuse and advertise his faithful wife.
