HALIFAX, Noith Carolina, February 25, 1773. HAVING been informed, by fundry Centlerpen of Veracity, that a Report was propagated in Virginia highly injurious to the Character of the deceafed Mr. James Milntr, late Attorney in this Place, importing tlut a Urge Quantity cf ecunterfeit Treafury Notes of that Colony, fom: flgned and others, unfigned, was found in his Houfe after hit Dc4ih and although 1 am convinced that only the credulous and malicious Part of Mankind could put any faith in fcaudalous a Stoiy, Mr. Milner, in all his Tr.nfaftions, having ever approved himfcll Man of Honour and Integrity, did Credit to his Profeflion as a Lawyer Yet as no Pei fun, however virtuous (efpecially SI Jie DC OI 1U pel lour DlliMU, inu 1111115 in mc ttwuu; uui ia unuiv iu the Shafts of Envy and Malice, 1 think it my Duty, as a Friend and Inti jlrnate of the Deceafcd, and in Juftice to bis Memory, to declare, in this publick Manner, that 1 had ail the Keys of the Delks in which his private Papers lay, for feveral Days before his Death, and that after his Deceafe I fearched eveiy Place in his Houfe, to difcovcr what Money he was polfeircd of, in the Prtfence of thij Reverend William iVillie, of Suffix County, Virginia, as well ai fundry Gentlemen of thefirit Character in tiiis Place; aod'that I have never yet found, in his Houfe, or among his Papers, any Thing that bore the leaft Similitude to the Virginia Treafury Notes, either figned or unfigned, counterfeit or good, nor a counterfeit Bill of any Kind, except forty five Shillings Proclamation Money of this" Province, wliich appears to have been received frtfn one Irvine, in Guilford County, by Mr. Edward StabUr of Ptierjhurg, Virginia, Of by Mr.

Andrew Miller, I attended him while he fearched every Delk, Scrutoire, Prefs, and Box, in Mr. Milner' Houfe, and examined every Paper and Pocket Book where it was likely any Money might be having heard that Mr. Milntr had, not long before his Ueatn, Dtui nvonunuicu rvunusujr mm, gitai faid, as Gold. But no Paper Money was found, except two Parcels of Carolina Proc little more than forty Pounds, which it feems he had received on Account cf fome of his Clients not one Shilling Virginia Cur lency.

Miller has faid to be true; but that Gentleman reeds not any 'i eftirhony of mine to the Truth of what he fays, he being of undoubted Veracity and Integrity as was, alfo, Mr. MUner.
