RAN away from the Subscriber on the 26th of April last,
two Slaves, viz. HARRY, a tall black fellow, near six
feet high, slender made, thick lips, a down look, and
about 29 years of age.----TOM POMPEY, a light Mulatto,
nearly the same height, about 24 years of age, stout
made, thick legs, a bushy head of hair, a sullen
impudent countenance, and has a mark or scar on his
body, resembling a chicken, which he was born with.---I
have reason to believe they are in Alexandria, where I
am told they have been some time, and Tom passed by the
name of Will.---They have been chiefly employed on board
some vessels, or at the fishing landings below town.---I
will give TEN DOLLARS Reward for each of them, if
delivered to me in Westmoreland.---Also ran away on
the 1st of May, another Fellow, named DICK, upwards of
40 years of age, short made, has the first joint of one
of his thumbs off, and has been accustomed to go by
water.-I will also give Ten Dollars for him, if caught
out of the neighbourhood.-As I suspect all the above
Fellows will attempt to go off in some vessel, I do
hereby forewarn all Captains of vessels and others from harbouring or conveying them out of this State.
