RAN AWAY

On the 25th ultimo, from the subscriber, living near Culpepper Court-house, A Negro Man named JACK, about 30 years old, 5 feet 10 or 11 inches high, very muscular, full faced, wide nostrils, large eyes, a down look, speaks slowly and wore his hair cued; had on when he eloped, a white shirt, grey broad cloth coat, mixed cassimere waistcoat and breeches, a brown hat, faced underneath with green, and a pair of boots.  He formerly belonged to Mr. Augustin Baughan, of Fredericksburg, now of Baltimore, and I am told was seen making for Alexandria, with the intention of taking the stage thither:  HE IS ARTFUL CAN BOTH READ AND WRITE AND IS A GOOD FIDDLER; it is therefore probable that he may attempt a forgery and pass as a free man.  He is most commonly known by the name of Jack Taylor, was originally from Essex County, has a father living there, and it is said he has a wife, the property of Mrs. Dalrymple of Dumfries.  Whoever secures him in any jail so that I get him again shall have Ten Dollars Reward, and if taken above sixty and not more than one hundred miles distant, and brought home, shall receive Twelve Dollars, and for any greater distance, Fifteen Dollars, with all reasonable expenses borne.  Masters of Vessels and stage drivers are forewarned carrying him out of the State, under penalty of the law.

TWENTY DOLLARS REWARD

Ran-away from the Subscriber’s plantation at Ponpon, about the beginning of last September, a young Mulatto Fellow named CYRUS, about five feet six or seven inches high, 25 years old, very short and strong built.  The said fellow is very well known about town, as he served four years apprenticeship to Mr. Donaldson, house carpenter.  IT IS PROBABLE THAT HE HAS FORGED A PASS FOR HIMSELF, AS HE WRITES; he sometimes calls himself James and says he belongs to Mr. Savage.  Any person apprehending and delivering him to the Master of the Work House, or at the Subscriber’s on South Bay, shall receive the above reward and all reasonable expenses paid
