having taken all his clothes with him. Masters of vessels and
others are therefore cautioned against harbouring or employing
the said fellow, as those offending therein will be prosecuted
to yhe utmost rigour of the law. A reward of two Doubloons
will be paid on his apprehension, being lodged in any gaol or
workhouse in this island, or on his being delivered to the subscriber; and a further reward of Six Doubloons on proving to
convition by whom harboured.
