Latium Estate, St. James’s,
June 17, 1806.
Fifty Pounds Reward.
RANAWAY, about seven weeks ago, from the above estate,
a sambo woman, about twenty-two years of age, named ROSAMIRA,
of a middling stature, yellowish complexion, and
aquiline nose. – Being of a pleasant countenance, and having
carried away a great deal of good clothes with her, she will
perhaps endeavour to pass as free. She went away without any
provovation, and, having committed not fault to deserve ill
treatment, her intention was no doubt long premeditated. She
has a father and mother with others of her family living in St.
John’s, where she was born, and from the time of her absence
she may be gone to that quarter. Any person bringing her to the
above estate, or lodging her in any gaol or workhouse, shall receive
a reward of TWENTY POUNDS; on proof to conviction
of being harboured by a slave, TWENTY-FIVE POUNDS; if
by a white person of free person, the sum of FIFTY POUNDS,
on application to the subscriber.
