Absconded
ABOUT ten days ago, a NEGRO MAN, named CATO, some
time the property of Roger Smith, esq. and well in town [sic];
he is a tall slim fellow, very remarkable for one of his ancles
being distorted which causes him to walk lame. Ten Dollars
reward will be given for taking him up and lodging him in
the Work-House. All persons whatever are hereby cautioned
against harboring said negro or they will be prosecuted: he is a
gardener, and it supposed to be employed as such about Charleston
neck, or at some of the places near toan.
