$100 REWARD! – Absconded from the subscriber this morning,
a Negro man, named Griffin. Griffin is about 26 years of
age, 5 feet, 8 or 10 inches high, very stoutly made,
broad shoulders; very full face; his eyes inclined to be
red, his clothing is of dark cassinet, and new. He was
purchased in January last of Col.—Wm. H. Sandford of
Westmoreland County, Va., who had just recovered him from
Philadelphia, where he had been carried by a Capt. Bevan,
who trades to Philadelphia with Oysters, and seems to
be regularly engaged in carrying off Slaves. Griffin has a
wife at Mr. Wm. Taliaferro’s, in Westmoreland Cty, Va., and
may probably go to that neighborhood.
-
I will give twenty-fire dollars reward, if he be taken, in
any of the Northern Neck counties; fifty dollars, if taken
in any other part of Virginia and one hundred dollars, if
taken out of the State, so that I get him again.
-
-
I would recommend to the owners of slaves on the Potomac, to
keep a strict look out on vessels plying from that river to
Baltimore, Alexandria, &ct, &ct.
