RUN-AWAY from the subscriber, the beginning of last month, a negro fellow, named SANCO, by trade a blacksmith, well known in town, and supposed to be harboured here. Had on when he went away, a blue cotee and breeches, with mettal buttons. Whoever delivers him to me, shall receive FIVE POUNDS reward. And upon proof given of the person harbouring him, FIVE POUNDS, if a negro, and TEN POUNDS if a white person.
