Ran away, from the above estate about a fortnight ago a Negro man, named JEMMY, A carpenter by trade about 5ft. 6 in high,strong made,and rather yellow of complexion,marked upon the left shoulder Q; about 35 years of age. It is suspected he is in the neighborhood of Weston-Favell Estate, from whence he was taken by Mrs.Harding's negroes, and delivered up a few months ago.He may probably have shifted his ground of concealment,and be among Mr. Thomlinson's negroes at Dalinsober,where he has connexions. The fellow is sensible and very plausible, with principles and practices very dangerous to be disseminated on any property in this island. He may have the address to pass for a free man.All people are cautioned from suffering such a negro to mix with their own. For the purpose of transporting him from the island to the propietor offers a reward of Ten Pounds to whoever delivers him on the estate and five pounds if lodged in any of the gaol or workhouses in this island on application to ALEXANDER MILLER, overseer on said estate
