Amity-Hall, St. Thomas in the East,
April 8, 1806.
RAN AWAY from the above property, on the 29th ult. a mulatto
slave, named RICHARD STEWART, by trade a carpenter,
about twenty-seven years of age, slim made, with dark
heavy eye-brows, and about four feet seven inches high; and
absconded, at same time, from Hordley estate, in this parish,
a mulatto slave, named JAMES NEIL, also by trade a carpenter, about twenty-four years of age, five feet ten inches high, a
stout made good-looking fellow, with the marks of an old sore
on the upper part of one of his feet. As there is strong reason
to suppose that they may be harboured, and with an intention
of getting off the island, all Captains of Vessels are cautioned
against carrying them off; and a reward of Two Doubloons for
each will be paid for apprehending and lodging them in any
gaol or workhouse in the island; and a further reward of four
Doubloons upon proving to conviction by whom they may be
harboured, upon application to Mr. Charles Scott, at Hordley
estate, or the subscriber.
JAMES DELI.
