Tiro Months Notice. THKRE Mr a great many notes in my possession given the firm i f H. Ac S. Tyner tliat have bet-n due from one to eight yean. That firm ceased to do business in this place over three years ago, at which time all who were indebted to them were notified that immediate payment was expected. Similar notices have been published from time tolime,yet there remains a considerable amount unpaid. These sums haze now been owing lone; enoueh and must be settled, and I hone those who have been so liberally in
dulged will consider themselves bound in honor to
make immediate payment. To let every one have ample time to make the necessary collections, I have concluded to give Two Months Notice, informing all indebted M K. & S. Tyner that they will be required to sattla their notes by the First of January, 1850. At that date erery t'ollcrlablc Clniin that remains unoai d will be nlaced in the bands of the pro-
! per officer for collection. No one will have cause of ! complaint after our past indulgence and this early notice, if his negligence compels me to fulfil this
promise. All debts over 12 months standing due me individually, are also expected to be paid by the abovementioned date, and omission to do so will force me to adopt the same mode of collection as will be pursued with the R. 8t 3. Tyner claims. Persons owing accounts credited this year are also requested to close them by New Years day. RICHARD TYXEJ?. Brookville, Nov. 1, 1849. 45
