RAN AWAY from the subscriber, about three weeks ago, a Negro
Man of the Moco country, named NELSON; a tall thin
fellow, speaks tolerable good English, and is very artful; has
his country marks in his face, a dotted line across his forehead,
and under his eyes; is likely withal; had on, when he absconded,
and osnaburgh frock, a blue woollen frock, and blue and
white Kilmarnock cap, also a red and white handkerchief. A
Pistole reward will be given to any person apprehending the
above slave, and lodging him in any gaol or workhouse in the
island, and Ten Pounds to any person or persons proving to
conviction by whom harboured, that they may be dealt with according to Law.
