TO The Editors Of The Firginian.


MESSRS. EDITORS--for the bene-
VA fit of honest men, and as check on
scoundrels, have thought proper to request
that you will advertise, that WILLIAM
KEATS, Jun. who lived with his fathcr (Wil-
liam Keats in the upper part OF Halifax
county, Va. and not more than miles from
Grasly's Store, in Pittsylvania county, Va.
has absconded, and carried with him seven
negroes four of whom were conveyed by
the said Keats to Mr.. William Smith and Mr.
jeremiah ". Graves, trustees for the pur-
pose of paying a debt due to me. The ne
groes conveyed are named Fanny, a woman,
and Martha, Clark and Hannah, her children.
Now, to the end that a sconndrel like Keats
shall not enjoy the benefit of good charac-
ter, give this public notice TO all the world ,
and for their more perfect security, inform
them, that he is II man about feet . or 10
inches high, rather dark complexion, near
80 years of age, some defect in his fore teeth,
and as plausible liar as exists on the face OF
the globe He has deceived more people, in
his way, agreeable to his understanding, than
any man of his age in existence, counting the
number of those he has had any thing TO do
with.
Given under my hand and responsibility, at
my store, in Pittsylvania county, Va. this Sd
day of January, 1923.
