R U N A W A Y, WILL, a cooper, of a yellowish complexion, thin visage, a sore on one of his legs, has had a fistula in ano, which is probably not well; is also remarkable for being covered from his waist downwards with the marks of severe correction given him inthe West Indies for an attempt to murder. The above Negro was sold in Georgia by Mr. Penman to Capt. Olderman, from whom I purchased him. He is supposed to have been carried back to Georgia by some white persons about the end of June, or beginning of July. TEN POUNDS REWARD will be given to any person who will give such information as will convict the person who has carried him off by PETER FAYSSOUX, of the City of Charleston, South Carolina.
