Transcription
Fifty Dollars Reward. RAN AWAY from the Subscriber, living in Edgecombe county, North Carolina, ten miles north from Tarborough, about ten days ago, a bright mulatto man named DANIEL: about thirty years of age, well made, and very active; his weight from 65 to 75; his occupation mostly was keeping stud and race horses, and is a tolerable good barber. He carried away a variety of clothing, and will likely try to pass as a free man. The said fellow has worked at the mill-wright business for four of the last years. The above reward will be given to any person or persons delivering said mulatto man to me, or lodge him in any jail so that I get him again. WILLIAM PARKER. Sept. 21, 1823. 40-6wp
