50 Dollars Reward
RAN AWAY from the subscriber about the 25th ultimo, a mulatto
man named Nathaniel, 20 years of age, 5 feet 8 inches
high, rather long visage, speaks English only, and talks very
bold, his dress cannot be described farther than that he has
an old great coat of a drab colour, and a short grey coat—it
is believed he has but few cloaths with him and these much
worn. He has been lately seen in the upper faubourg and in
the neighborhood of the Bayou St. John. It is probable he will
attempt to cross the lake and return to Kentucky from whence
he was brought last spring by Mr. Joseph Miller, of Bourbon
county.—The above reward with all reasonable charges will
be paid for securing him in any jail in this territory or delivering
him to Messrs. Kenner & Henderson.
Masters of vessels and others are cautioned against harboring
said run-away.
