Spanish-Town, Oct. 15, 1801.
ABSCONDED, from the Subscriber’s Mountain
Plantation, a few miles from this town,
A Negro Man, named Smithfield.
He is a very stout fellow, of about 5 feet 9 inches in height; he
has a plausible way of speaking, and generally with a smile or
grin upon his countenance, and may pass as Free, under some
other Name; he has been absent about six months, but for what
reason is unknown to the subscriber; he has been seen in and
about Kingston, and is supposed to be now employed there.
Whoever apprehends him and securely lodges him in any of
the workhouses, or delivers him to the Subscriber, shall receive
a reward of Ten Pounds.
Captains of ships and other vessels are cautioned how they
employ him.
JAMES LEWIS.
