$10 REWARD. LEFT my house about the 15th of May last, a negro man named Simon, 19 or 20 years of age; very stout built, has a stammer when speaking, and dark complexion. Said negro is a Rock Mason by trade, and has a paper to engage and complete work in his line as a mason. When last heard from he was in the neighborhood of Townesville, Granville county, N. C. I will give the above reward for his delivery to me or confinement in any jail so that I get him again. W. T. HUNT, for LUNCINDA HUNT. Tally-Ho, Granville co., Sep. 1858. 31-tf
