Clermont, St. Elizabeth’s, Feb. 2, 1802.
ABSCONDED from Highworth settlement, near White-Hill
and Alexandria pens, on the 10th of last month, Two Congo
Negroes, named PIT and CATO, marked on right shoulder WI:
Cato’s mark rather obscure; but, by minute examination, two
marks of the same kind may be distinguished; he is about 5
feet 5 inches high, very black complexion: Pit’s mark quite
plain, nearly same size and colour as the other, and pleasant
open countenance. Any person apprehending the said two Negroes
shall receive a reward of a Pistole for each of them, by
delivering them to Mr. John Holliday, Lacovia Post-Office; or,
to the subscriber on the above property.
