One Cent Reward.
WALKED AWAY, being too lazy to run, Tom Tredwell, a colored boy, aged about 18 years. This is to forbid all persons harboring or trusting him on my account. The boy was an indentured apprentice to the subscriber, and all persons harboring said boy will be dealt with according to law. The above reward will be given for the apprehension, and return of said boy, but no charges paid. THOMAS HAMILTON.
