NOTICE. RANAWAY from the subscriber, at the first settlement below Stack-Isl-and, on the Mississippi, a Negro man by the name of WINSER, about thirty-five years old, of a very black complexion, stout built and by trade a cooper. I ex-pect he will make for Tennessee, in the neighborhood of Nashville. Any person who will apprehend said fellow, and deliv-er him to Josiah Marrs, of Natchez or the subscriber, living in Williamson county, Tennessee, or secure him so that I get him again, shall receive a reward of fifty dollars, and all reasonable expenses. STEPHEN NOLEN. December 28, 1815. 37—3*
