BROKE JAIL.
ON THE NIGHT OF THE 5TH INSTANT, FOUR prisoners broke the jail of Person County and escaped. GEORGE EASTWOOD, a deserter, medium height and size, light brown hair, about 21 years old. SIDNEY, slave of Dr. Williamson, of Caswell, charged with burglary, chunky build, black, quick spoken, and about 40 years old. ELLICK, a runaway, says he belongs to David Holly, of Chowan County, black, square built, scar under the right eye, about 20 years old. The fourth says he is free and named JUNIUS HARDIE, arrested on suspicion of being a runaway slave, medium size, black, and wears his beard.
These persons may band together for mischief, and every good citizen is interested in arresting them, and every one is requested to use every effort to do so and return them to jail.
