Levy placed this notice in response to an ad that was printed in the South Carolina Gazette, publicizing the intended sale of Ossabaw and Sapelo Islands in the Georgia colony. In response to the ad, Levy announces that he has the legal title to that property, having purchased it from Thomas and Mary Bosomworth (a.k.a. Mary Musgrove or Coosaponakeesa) who had reportedly received the land from the Creek Indians. He further states that he plans to petition his case before the British Crown and warns potential buyers that their purchase of the land(s) may not be legitimate.
