RUN AWAY from the subscriber, three NEGRO FELLOWS, named SCIPIO, BRISTOL, and ABRAHAM; Scipio is a stout black fellow, this country born; Bristol is a tall black fellow, a carpenter by trade, well known in CharlesTown and at Goose-Creek; Abraham is a tall mustee fellow, plays upon the fiddle, well known in Charles-Town and at Goose-Creek. Whoever delivers the said fellows to me or Mr. James Lingard, shall receive FIVE POUNDS reward for each. A reward of TWENTY POUNDS will be given for Abraham's head.
PETER TAMPLETT.
