THATCHER HOUSE.
NE Harrison put up at my house,
stayed several days, made some very pleas
ant acquaintances, got vastly popular with the
elite of our city, and had decidedly a "good
time" generally. He is a tall, well-featured
young inan.sandv hair and complexion, rather
modest address, and was sent up to Columbus
from the Brazos to get a negro out of jail by Mr.
W. Lee Borden, who furnished him with a horse
and gave him money to defray his necessary
expenses. Upon his visit here he disposed of
the horse and accoiilre.ncnts, gambled off the
monev, and " vanished into thin air " without
paying his board bill, without getting the negro
out of the jail, without paying his account for
the "elements," and without liquidating an
amount Handnnrasrainst him for the artistic game
of ten pins. This is to certify that the said
Harrison is considerad no gnntlcman by those
with whom he had dealings in this community,
and to forewarn strangers from trusting to his
cupidity arid overweening rascality.

After this date they will be so!d at rates that ~*
