A PROCLAMATION,
hit Excellency, Tho.MAs Uraou, Governor
of North Carolina.
WHERE.AS, it has been represented to me that
one Archibald McDougald. late of the County
of Cumberland, did on the 27th ilay of February last,
in said County, kill and murder one Thomas M unroe.
and that the said McDougald is a fugitive from justice,
and has escaped beyond the limits of this State.
Now, to the end that the said Archibald McDougald
may be arrested and brought to trial for his said of
fence, I do hereby issue this my Proclamation, offering
a Reward of Two Hundred l>oIlars for his ap{>rehen-
sion and delivery to the Sheriff of Cumberland County.
DESCRIPTION.
McDougald is about fifty years of age, of light hair
and complexion, blue eyes, of quick speech, has a scar
on the face near one of his jaws, weighs about lt>5 or
n each. This classification, extending over a long ^ 170 pounds, is addicted to intoxication, and while

which owes its popularity to no putting, nor to long,
windy certificates—but solely to its own merits as a
remedy which never fails to cure when taken acconl-
ing to directions accompanying each box. This Pill,
unlike many others, contains no mineral, nor any in- j
jurious ingredient, and may be administered with per
fect safety at all times, to young or old.
As a preventive against Chills, or any other type of
Fever, it is recommended as unsurpassed; anl in treat
ment of Fevers generally it is far superior to (.Quinine,
or any preparation of Peruvian bark. A trial of its
' merits is all that is needed to insure it a favorable
position in the estimation of even the most inveterate
opposer of Proprietary or Patent prescriptions.

REVtSKU AND OORRECTED, WITH NOTES AND REFERENCES,
BY
HON. WTLLLVM IL RATTLE,
Jl’DlJE OF TUE SIPRE.ME COURT OF NORTH C \R0L1.NA.
The price of the new edition is not greater than that
of the old, though, as it is scarcely necessary to say to
the Profession in North Carolina, its value has been
greatly increased by Judge Battle’s Notes, References
and Corrections.
The volume has been long out of print, and we shall
be glad to supply the many Lawyers whose sets of Re
ports are incomplete without it, as well as those who
have the old edition but would like to have the new
one for the sake of its notes.
