RANAWAY FROM the Subscriber, on the 16th instant, a NEGRO MAN named ROBIN, of a yellow complection and pleasant countenance, stout built, 5 feet 8 inches high, between 40 and 43 years of age, and by trade a carpenter. He is supposed to be lurking after the family of Mr. Robt.[Robert] Harwell, who owns said negro's wife, and who is on his rout to the Mississippi Territory, for the purpose of selling her. Any person who will deliver said Negro to the subscriber, living in Franklin county, near Louisburg, N.C. or lodge him in any jail, so that I get him again, shall be liberally rewarded and have all reasonable expences paid.
