$30 Reward. RANAWAY from the Subscriber, on the night of the 23d of December, 1848, an Indented Apprentice to the Tailoring Business, by the name of Chas [Charles] B. SMITH. He is about 5 feet 8 or 9 inches in height, with light hair, fair complexion, and rather a sullen countenance. He had on an Invisible Green Frock Coat, Striped Cassimere Pants, and fancy Marsailles vest, which he may probably change, as he had other clothing with him ; he has now some two years to serve. All persons are fordbid to employ him in this or any other State, in any capacity whatever, under the penalty of the law. I will give the above reward for his apprehension and delivery to me, or for his committal to jail until I call for him. THOS. [Thomas] R. FENTRESS, Merchant Tailor, Raleigh, N. C.
