RUN away from me, a very likely negro fellow named CATO, a taylor by trade, about 23 years of age, commonly wears a light coloured coat with a double row plain white buttons, a brown waistcoat edged with white; he has five fingers on each hand. Any person delivering said negro to me or to the Warden of the Sugar- House shall receive ONE GUINEA reward, and the above reward of Ten Guineas to them that will give information of his being harboured by a white person or free negro, on conviction of the offenders, shall be paid by
