Caution

The public are hereby cautioned against purchasing or trading for certificate No. 815, for 640 acres of bounty lands issued to John Flick or his attorney, about the 1st of December, 1836, as the same was stolen from among the papers of said Flick since his decease.

The said John Flick removed from the state of Mississippi in the winter of 1834-5, and died in Jackson county, republic of Texas, in the summer of 1837. One or more of the Indiana and Mississippi papers are requested to publish the foregoing, as I have reason to believe the said deceased left a family in Indiana.
