WHEREAS a certain JOHN WHITE,
who lately came from North Carolina to this Place, has, in a very unjust and
fraudulent Manner, become indebted to the Subscribers, with a large Number of
others of the Merchants and Tradesmen of the said City, to the Value of near
Four Thousand Pounds; upon which Credit, he hath built a fine single deck, and
taken up a large Quantity of Goods for her Lading, under Pretence of sending her
forthwith to North Carolina; and, in order the more effectually and clandestinely
to cover and carry on his wicked and fraudulent Intentions, he gave out to his
Creditors, that he did not intend to leave the Place, but settle here; yet, after
the Vessel left the Port, he, unknown to his Creditors, and contrary to his Engagement,
proceeded in a private Manner to New Castle; at which Place the said WHITE ,
and the Captain of the said Brigantine, John Thornton, with their Wives,
embarked and sailed in her, to some Place, as is apprehended, where the said
WHITE may think himself safest from his Creditors, with a Design entirely to cheat
and defraud them of their just Debts. Bow we the Subscribers, in order for the
apprehending of the said John WHITE , and for preventing the like Impositions
by him on others, for the future, and for procuring, if possible, from him our just
Demands, do hereby give public Notice of the Conduct of the said John WHITE,
and desire all and any of our Friends, or the Friends of Justice, in any Port or
Place where the said WHITE
may arrive with the said Vessel, to arrest and apprehend him, together with the
Vessel, on our Accounts, and of such their friendly and generous Transactions to
remit to us forthwith an Account, that they may have the proper Credentials
authentically transmitted to them, which they may depend shall be done with
the utmost Expedition: and we do hereby engage to support and indemnify such
Persons, in the fullest and amplest manner, for interposing in our Behalf
against the said WHITE , and the
said Vessel; and to make them full Compensation, for the Trouble and Expenses
which they shall sustain in this Behalf.
