COUNTERFEIT NOTES. Counterfeit 5 d liar notes on ihe Lancaster Ohio Bank are in extensive circu

said to be well executed and well calcula

Gill the color of the paper is lighter than that of the genuine notes, and is a little
tinged with a yellow, more like that of the
earlier issues; this is particular obvious in
looking at the back of the note.
It is also rumored that counterifeit $3
notes on the same bank are in circulation
We would advise our citizens to be care
