$10 REWARD
RAN AWAY from the subscriber, living two miles below Raleigh NC abou the 1st of February last, a Negro man by the name of TOM, who formerly belonged to Col. Barney Patterson, dec'd[deceased], of Granville county.?� A description of Tom is deemed unnecessary as there is no doubt of his being in Granville at this time lurking in and about the plantations of L Goodwin (where he has a wife) Wm[William] Webb and Wm.[William] Dickens, where he has relations.
Any one who will be so friendly and just as to take (in the midst of friends, black and no doubt white) him the said Tom, and deliver him to me, shall receive the above reward with all reasonable expences.
ALFRED LANE.
