Forty Dollars Reward.
RAN AWAY from the subscriber, two NEGRO WENCHES,
one by name HESTER ; she went off the 3d of last July : she
has been seen in Charleston ; it is likely that she will make for
St. James’s, Santee, where she has a mother, or to St. Thomas’
Parish, where she has a sister, and formerly lived. A reward of
Thirty Dollars will be given for Hester, if she is delivered to
me or put in the Work-House.
The second, BECK, who went away the 8th inst. Beck is well
known in town as a market woman : she has a husband belonging
to Mr. Stroble, in Meeting-street. A reward of Ten Dollars
will be given for Beck : if she returns of her own accord she
will be pardoned.
The Wenches here advertised, there is good reason to believe
within this city.
Masters of vessels are cautioned against carrying either of the
said Negroes out of the state under penalty of being prosecuted
according to law.
Also, all persons are cautioned against harbouring or employing
said Negroes, as they will also be prosecuted according
to law.
