Fifty Dollars Reward.
RAN-AWAY from the subscriber some time last winter, a NEGRO
FELLOW, named SAM, formerly the property of Charles
Colcock, esq. ; he is a stout likely young fellow, very artful,
and probably may endeavour to pass for a free man, his mother
belongs to Mrs. Colcock ; it is therefore probable he may be
seen in the neighborhood of South Bay. A reward of Twenty
Dollars will be paid on his being delivered to the Master of the
Work House, and also, a further reward of Thirty Dollars, on
a legal conviction of his being harboured by a white person,
or half that sum if by a negro. As it is likely he gets his living
by working on the wharves, all masters of vessels and others
are cautioned against employing him. If he returns of his own
accord he will be forgiven.
William Tennent.
