Mount-Dakins, St. Andrew’s,
Nov. 12, 1801.
RAN AWAY, on the 6th instant, a Negro Boy named JAMES,
of the Otam country, marked on the right shoulder HB; had on,
when he absconded, a blue jacket, with a red collar, a check
shirt, and Osnaburgh trowsers; speaks English tolerably well,
having been near two years in the country. Whoever will secure
said boy, and deliver him to me, or to Doctor John McKnight,
Church street, shall receive Eight Dollars reward.
HORATIO BRUCE.
N. B. It is strongly suspected the said boy was enticed away,
as he was seen on the wharf of Mess. Lindo and Lake, a few
days since, bartering with another negro. Any person proving
on conviction by whom he is harboured, shall receive a further
reward of a Doubloon.
