Runaway

--$15 Reward.--Ranaway from the subscriber, on the 15th day of October last, his Negro Man Henderson, Said negro is about 25 years old, very likely, not very dark, and about 6 feet high. The tips of the fore and middle fingers on the left hand have been cut off, and some of his toes have been frostbitten. He has a wife at the farm of Mr. Wm. Boulware, adjoining mine. He may be lurking near some of the camps, with a view to engage himself as a servant. It is not remembered what colored clothes he had on when he left. The above reward will be paid if he is lodged in jail so that I get him, or upon his delivery to me at my residence, in Henrico county, near Dutch Gap.
