FIVE Cents Reward, but no thanks given.--Ranaway from the subscriber 15[?] miles North-west of Raleigh, on the 28th of December 1839, an indented Apprentice to the Tailor's trade, who calls himself NATHANIEL KELVIN. Said boy is fifteen years old, badly grown, has light hair, and is rather of a swarthy complexion ; has a scar on his right cheek, occasioned by the cut of a knife. I have no doubt but said boy is lurking about Raleigh. I forewarn all persons, from employing, boarding or harboring said boy, as I am determined to enforce the law in its most rigorous form. E. B. HART. January 11, 1840. 5-3t
