Spanish-Town, February 25, 1809.
A PISTOLE REWARD.
RANAWAY, from the subscriber, about ten days ago, a negro
man christened JOHN RICKETS, formerly belonging to the
Hon. John C. Rickets, attorney general of this island. He is
about 5 feet 5 inches high, in-toed, and about thirty-five or
forty years of age, speaks good English, and may attempt to
pass as free, being very artful and cunning; he had on, when
he went away, a long grey superfine cloth coat, and nankeen
pantaloons; he generally wears shoes or boots – he was seen
last week on the road to St. John’s, near Dove Cot Park Pen,
with a bundle. The above reward will be given to any person
who will bring him to the subscriber, or lodge him in any gaol
or workhouse in this island.
