May 10, 1802.
RAN AWAY from the subscriber, on Clifton Pen, St. Elizabeth,
about the middle of May last, the following New Negro
Men, who have been five months in the country : - SAMPSON,
a Chamba, about 30 years old 5 feet 10 or 11 inches
high, remarkably strong and well made,his face and his body a
good deal cut with his country marks, but has no other marks
: ROMEO, a Congo, about 25 years old, 5 feet 11 inches, well
made, but no particular mark : PRINCE, a Congo, 21 years
old, about 5 feet 10 inches, well made, without any particular
mark, excepting that one of his legs being such longer than the other, and the smaller one a good deal scarred, he says,
from the bite of an Alligator : ROMULUS, a Congo, about
21 years old, 5 feet 11 inches high, has his country marks,
lips very thick, and large staring eyes : SAMBO, a Congo,
about 21 years old, very stout, and has a very dark complexion,
no mark, and understands English pretty well. As the above
negroes have been long enough in the country to enable the
overseers of the workhouses to assertain them by their description,
the subscriber will give a very handsome reward to any
person or persons, who will give him any information of either
of them ; and any person who will deliver then to Mess. Levys
and Girdwood, Black-River, or, to Mr. Smith, overseer on the
above pen, shall be handsonely paid for their trouble.
