Run away, on the 20th of August last a Negro man, of the Coromantee country, named SAM, by trade a carpenter. He is slim made abut 5 ft. 8 or 9 in. high, 20 years of age, speaks good English, but a little through the nose; had on when he went away a sore upon one of his ankles, and marked on the right shoulder I T, if not wore out. Also, BILLY, of the same trade [carpenter], about the same age, but not so tall or thin; both well looking fellows with mild countenances. TITUS, a carpenter, runaway since Christmas, is about 26 years of age, middle size, and has no mark. Whoever brings the above Negroes to ROBERT BROWN, carpenter, Savanna la Mar, or JAMES THOMSON, at Cross-Path, shall receive a Half-Joe reward for each.
