Transcription

ON the 5th Day of August last I lost a young Negro Man whose Name is ADAM, about 5 Feet 8 or 9 Inches high, well made, has rather a down modest Look, and of a yellow Complexion; had on, I believe, a brown Holland Coat, a Check Stuff Jacket, and a Pair of Russia Drill Breeches. He is a fine Shoemaker by Trade, dresses tolerably well, and has been used to wait in the House for several Years. I will give a Reward of 20 Dollars to any Person that will bring him to me, 15 Dollars to secure him in any Gaol in this State, so that I get him again.
JOHN JOUET .
