Twenty Dollars Reward.
RAN AWAY from the subscriber, on the 20th April last, a NEGRO
MAN, named FORTUNE, had on a blue negro cloth coat,
brown overalls and homespun waistcoat, five feet seven or eight
inches high, twenty-seven years old ; inclined to a yellow
complexion. It is believed Fortune will endeavor to make his
way into North-Carolina, where he is well acquainted, having
been carried into that state when a boy by Cornwallis’s army,
where his former owner found him six or seven years ago. He
is remarkable for his dialect, having imbibed a tone of voice
similar to the natives of the interior part of that state.
The above reward and all reasonable charges will be paid, by
delivering him to the subscriber at Drayton’s Swamp, four miles
below Monk’s Corner.
Hugh Grant.
