RUN AWAY on the 24th of February last, from my plantation at Horse-Savannah, four negroes
formerly belonging to doctor John Hutchinson, deceased, and therefore supposed to be gone
towards Port-Royal, viz. three men and a boy, one of the men named BOB, this country born, is a
carpenter by trade; the two others Angola born, named TOM and PUNCH; the boy named BOB
has a scar on the side of his mouth. TEN POUNDS reward will be given to any person that
delivers Bob, the carpenter, to me, and three pounds for each of the others, besides reasonable
charges. SAMUEL WAINWRIGHT.
