I HAVE TO NOTIFY THE PUBLIC THAT
on the eighth of May last I obtained an

ing herself "Madame Gouraud," restraining
her from " selling, or transferring, the goods,
ch -tiels, Proprietary articles and trade marKS
of tho late Dr. T. Feii* Gouraud." This enjoins
the Fa e of the Oriental Cream, and other pro-
prietaiy articles of my deceased father. I
have th-refore to warn the trade against pur
chafing from the said "Madame Gouraua"
anv of t^aii preparations, pending my ii junc-
tiun. Meanwhile my "Olympian Cream "is
free from legal entanglement, and irs sale
atone leg timate. The world of fashion will
find it a toilet a** icle at least equ«i io the pro-
hibited article, and its price reduced to One

To all to whom th*»se presents shall come:
Whereas it ha* this day come to my
knowledge that J J Groos, Commissioner of
the General Land Office of the St *te of Texas,
did. on the 6th d\y of July, 1877, in opposition
to my solemn official protest in writing and
his own official assurances given me and the
Attorney General in writing, issue, in the name
of John H. Gibson, contractor for opening
and cleaning out the Bernard river, four hun-
dred and forty-»<ix land certificates, each for
six hundred and forty acres of land; and also
to sa>d Gibson, as contractor for cleaning out
Caney, one hundred and twelve land certifi-
cates, each for six hundred and fortv acres of
land; in all five hundred and fifty-eight land
certificates of six hundred and forty acres
each.
Said certificates for cleaning out the Ber-
nard are numbered from 1 to 44C inclusive,
and for cleaning out Caney are numbered
from 447 to 538 inclusive. These certificates
were delivered by said commissioner to A. M.
Hobby, which certificates were issued con-
trary to law and without consideration to the
State.
Therefore, I, R. B. Hubbard, Governor of
the State of Texas, do issue this my procla-
m tion forewarning all persons whomsoever
from purchasing or otherwise dealing in said
certificates, as the patents for the same will
not be issued.
In testimony whereof I hereto sign my
name and cause the seal of the State to be af-
fixed at the city of Austin, this 21st day of
July, 1877. R. B. 3UBBARL\ Governor.
