CAROLINA FEDERAL REPUBLIC 1817

Public Notice
Is hereby given to each and every of the Officers and Soldiers individually 
and collectively of the detatched militia of the State, from the Counties of 
Johnston and Greene, who served under Captain Hymerick HOOKER, from Wayne 
County, under Capt. David MASDEN, from Lenoir County, under Lieut. Nathan 
BYRD, from Craven County, under Lieut. David MURDOCH, & those of the Carteret 
regiment of Militia who served at that time under a number of different 
Captains. That if by the misconduct or negligence of any deputies, or through 
any mistake or inadvertance whatsoever any one remains unpaid, or unsatisfied, 
whom it was my duty to pay. I earnestly request and thus publicly call upon 
him or them to apply to me at my Office in the County of Carteret, for such 
amount of pay as is actually due, for, although I have paid every cent 
confided to me for the purpose, and advanced between 13 and $1400 cash of my 
own, previous to my settling my accounts with the public, of which money from 
my individual funds, not a cent on has been paid me nor a cent on account of 
my _rduous and laborious Service__ two years: I am not only unwilling but 
anxious that no person shall suffer any loss through their confidence in me.
          Signed. J. ROBERTS, June 14, 1817.
