Sometime during the months of July and August
last, Miller in the course of business transac-
non informed MI BeIknap that he could if he desired
II, procure tor him 10000, provided he would pay
him certain per cen,age. Mr.. b having occasion
10 use large amount Of money, agreed to The terms,
and gave Miller four notes of hand one for $4,000,
payable SIX months after date; another for 81 $40,
and third for 81 o0e each aso payable in SIX months
and fourth for ~250O, payable in four months, all
OF which put in banks and the money obtained
upon them 1t supposed that Miller (who is report
ed 10 be bad penman) procured the aid of another
person and copied the genuine notes. which for short
time were in his hands, and put into the market, at
least tlcenty four torged notes, each for 80 500 by
dispoSlng OF them to different Individuals on 'change,n
aftar, in some instances, placing his own endorse
ment upon them, and in others procuring that of mo-
neyed men.

came due and the endorsements being genuine il
