PRINCE GEORGE,
JULY 31, 1769.
RUN away from the subscriber, near the courthouse, the 1st of June last, a Virginia born Negro named NED, about 6 feet high, about 55 years of age, is a little round shouldered, stoops a little as he walks, his head gray, beard thin, a thin visage, and is a house carpenter, a wheelwright, and a very good sawer. He is outlawed. Whoever takes up the said Negro, and brings him to me, or confines him in jail well ironed, shall have 50 s. reward.
BURWELL GREEN.
