20 Dollars Reward.
RANAWAY yesterday morning, between 6 and 7 o’clock, my
servant,
JACOB,
(late the property of Major Wightman) — He is about 25 years
of age, his stature of the middle size, rather slender and well
proportioned ; has a mark or scar on one side of his nose, (not
very visible, being much obliterated by time) and just a little
above his ancles there appear other marks, occcasioned by the
fall from a horse — His complexion is black, features regular,
with small eyes, expressive of much vivacity, and a pleasant
countenance — his carriage is erect : He speaks the English
language very distinctly, and also has a knowledge of the
French language, and is frequently in company with French
negroes.
Had on when he went away, a half worn black cloth coat, striped
waistcoat, white dimity pantaloons and white lined shirt.
JACOB is a very artful fellow, and in order to evade detection
it is probable he will change his apparel, and speak in the
French language.
All persons are cautioned against harbouring or carrying the
said Fellow out of the state as the law will be strictly enforced
against them.
Daniel Macaulay.
