$50 Reward,
FOR the delivery to me of my boy JACOB, or $20 if put in jail so I get him again. Jacob robbed the overseer's trunk of some articles of clothing. and run off on the 24th inst., and will make his way to Edgecombe, where he was raised by a man by the name of Cherry. He has lived in Tarborough and Conetoe, and I believe a man by the name of Dicken owns his mother, who lives in the neighborhood of Doct. Powell's. Jacob is a small black fellow, with a round face and down look; his clothing was a homespun frock coat and pantaloons, both of a grayish color, and wore a cloth cap speckled--has travelled with me for several years.
