LATE OMISSIONS.

A Register, for the county of Oxford.

Among the many new offices, for the county of Oxford, there is no man within its limits, better qualified for a Register of Deeds, than the rev. John Strickland, of Turner. He is a gentleman of an unspotted moral character, good mental endowments, and recommended to them by College Education. He writes an uncommon good hand; and has a Son, not one and twenty, whom he can easily call to his assistance, that very few in this new County can equal in a good hand writing. I earnestly hope that the new County will take him for their Register.

By publishing these observations, you will oblige a constant customer, for a number of years.

S. P.
