Baltimore Maryland Journal and Baltimore Advertiser,May 5, 1786.
Thirty Dollars Reward. RAN AWAY, from the subscriber, on Friday the 27th instant, a mulatto man, named JACOB GLOVER, about 50 years of age, 5 feet 6 or 7 inches high, curly hair, somewhat gray, thin visage; he took with him sundry cloaths, among which are a snuff-coloured broadcloth coat, and a pair of plush breeches. He is a tanner and currier by trade, but has for some years attended a mill. He pretends to be knowing in farrying and keeping race-horses, which is probably the business he will wish to follow. Any person apprehending said fellow, and delivering him to the subscriber, shall have, if taken in the County, Eight Dollars; if out of the County and 30 miles from home, Ten Dollars; if 40 miles, Twelve Dollars, and so in proportion; but if upwards of 100 miles from home, the above Reward, paid by me.
EDWARD HALL.
Cranbury, Harford County, Maryland, April 29, 1786.
N.B. All masters of vessels are forewarned from carrying off said Runaway, as they will answer it at their peril.
