Caution
All persons are hereby notified, that one Thomas Peterkin, by his notice
in the "Arkansas Gazette" of the 26th of September last, offers for sale
some "valuable lands" that are not, never were, and never will be his;
and particularly the tract of 400 arpens joining the Mississippi, on
which he states that I, Sylvanus Phillips, now reside.
This Thomas Peterkin has been, for some time, at this place, endeavoring
to sell his pretended land claims; but his titles are too well known
here for him to effect a sale at any price. He will now, probably
endeavor to sell to persons at a distance, who know nothing of his
title, for which reason this caution is published.
The tract of land on which I live, and which I own, has been
unconditionally confirmed by an act of Congress of the 29th of April,
1816; and has since been surveyed accordingly, under the authority of
the United States.
Peterkin's claim being ascertained to be unfounded; has been rejected as
such; so that both claims have been decided as above, by the only
tribunal made competent by law to adjudicate thereon.
Mr. Peterkin, in his advertisement, admits my claim to be confirmed, and
that his has been rejected; so that, from his own showing, he is
offering to sell lands that do not belong to him.
