$500 REWARD.
Ran off from my residence, a mulatto boy named BILL, aged about 22 years, weighs about 150 pounds, and is about 5 feet 7 inches high. Said boy was formerly owned by Mr Dulen, of Randolph county. Has a black slouch hat, dark frock coat, grayish pants, almost a new pair of shoes; has a good forehead, slim features, no whiskers; has a feminine voice and is slightly stoop-shouldered. Also, said boy is supposed to have $250 in gold, which was stolen at the time of his leaving, $50 of which will be paid for his arrest if found on him.
P. S.--I am informed that the above named boy went off with some soldiers going to the army near Petersburg. He was formerly a waiter to some army officer.
