$10 Reward
Will be paid for apprehending and delivering to me, or so confining that I get him, my negro man JOHN, who left my plantation on Monday the 16th inst. He is about 25 years of age, 5 feet 10 inches high, quite black, with a gruff look and has a scar on the outside of one his legs, occasioned by a burn. His clothes were of homespun, kersey wove. It is more than probable, he may be lurking in the neighbourhood of Mr. James Coffield, where he pretends to have a wife.
