RUN away about the middle of November last from the subscriber’s plantation on Santee, a short likely NEGRO FELLOW named DAVY, about five feet five inches high and twenty five years of age: he can work a little at the Carpenter’s Trade, has a large Bump on his right leg, which has been broke. He had on when he went away a black Cloth Jacket and white Ruffia Drab Breeches. Whoever will deliver him to the Warden of the Work-House in Charles Town, or to the Subscriber at his Plantation on Santee shall receive FIVE POUNDS reward and all reasonable Charges, from
