Samifield, St. Mary’s, July 31, 1812. THREE DOUBLOONS REWARD. RANAWAY, from the above property, in July, 1807, a negro man, named MOSES, an American, 40 years of age, about 5 fet 6 inches high, stout made, marked WR on one shoulder, and WT on the other; he is a cooper by trade, and occasionally a fidler; very plausible, and no doubt passes himself as free. Also, in June last, a negro woman, named ELIZA, an Angola, 35 years of age, 5 feet 6 inches, black complexion, marked WT left shoulder; a noted runaway – was harboured some time ago in the neighbourhood of Mount-Royal, by a negro man belonging to Mr. McCanley. A Pistole each will be paid for lodging each in any workhouse; and Three Doubloons on proving to conviction by whom they are harboured, on applying as above.
