RUN away from the subscriber about 10 weeks ago, from Wando-neck, five negroes, viz.
ROVER, a thick short negro man above 50 years of age; MARIA, his daughter, a strong middlesized wench, about 20 years of age; JACOB, a yellow negro fellow middle-sized, is a carpenter by
trade, has one of his great toes cut off with an ax, and is about 28 years of age; CUPID, a short,
thick, black fellow, above 40 years of age, and walks lame: These two last negroes were lately
seen at John's Island, at the plantation of the late Robert Gibbs; but are supposed to be now about
Wando: JOE, a black boy about 15 years of age, this country born. Whoever apprehends the
above negroes, or any of them, and delivers them to the warden of the work-house, shall receive
Three Pounds for each; or whoever will give information where any of them are harboured, if by a
white person shall, on conviction, receive Fifty Pounds, or if by a negro Five Pounds.
ROBERT WILLIAMS.
