THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS REWARD.
RAN away the 3d of July, 2 slaves, from Jonathan Rawlings’s. A fellow named Peter, a carpenter by trade, a stout, well made man, about 26 years of age, 5 feet 9 inches high; had on, when he went away, a brown coat, striped jacket and trousers, a round hat, with a small hose between the crown, and rim.
A wench named Rachel, about 19 years old, much pitted with the small pox; had on, when she went away, a blue camblet petticoat, with a linen wrapper.
Whoever secures said negroes in any gaol shall receive the above reward, or in proportion for either, by applying to Mr. Isaac M’Hard, in Annapolis.
