Notices such as this bilingual one in English and Cherokee from the Chero- kee Phoenix (New Echota, Georgia), refusing to honor an estranged wife's debts, appear in newspapers from the early nineteenth century to the pres- ent day. Since husbands were responsible for the debts and contracts of their wives, without this notice William McConnell would have been forced to pay the debts incurred after his wife's departure. In some locales, news- papers publish the only official statement of record for debt notices, bank- ruptcies, and estate announcements.
