Caution.
The undersigned, being aware that there are
individuals in this city who are engaged in the business
of buying and selling MINERAL WATER, PORTER, ALE, CIDER,
and ROOT BEER BOTTLES belonging to them, and which are
advertised never to be sold, deem it a duty to caution
such persons against longer persisting in such
practices, as they are fully determined to prosecute
every individual engaged in this business.
Desirous of extending leniency, and not to be
charged with persecuting those who have innocently come
in possession of our Bottles, we hereby give notice,
that we will pay twenty-five cents per dozen for all
bottles brought to either of us, until the first day of
June next
