RUN away from my plantation at Combahee, about the beginning of April last, a negro fellow named KouliKan; he is a tall, slim, black fellow, & a cooper by trade; he lately belonged to Luke Stoutenburgh, Esq; and is well known at Goose Creek, John's Island, and Ashepoo, and has a wife at the plantation at Canes-Acres, belonging, to Capt. Taylor's estate, it is likely, he may be harboured. Whoever will apprehend the said fellow, and deliver him to the warde of the work house in Charles-Town, shall have ten pounds reward. HENRY MIDDLETON
