Run away, from Fairfield Estate a Negro carpenter, named DOWIE, of a yellowish complexion, short, lusty, and well made, without any brand-mark. A Half-Joe reward will be paid to any person that lodges him in gaol, or delivers him to the overseer upon said estate. If any person should attempt to carry the said Negro off the island, or otherwise harbour or conceal him, they may depend on being prosecuted as the law directs.
