Three hundred dollars reward.
--Ran away, on the 6th March, my negro man John. He is 25 years old, 5 feet 7 or 8 inches high, very stout built; has a round face, high forehead, full head of hair, and of good countenance, very black, and is a blacksmith; had on when he left jeans pantaloons, blue jacket, and a pair of boots; he was raised is Powhatan county by Philip St George Cooke. I purchased him of John R Sedgwick in December last. I will give the above reward for him if delivered to Lee & Bowman, Richmond, Va, or to me at Wytheville, Va. He is supposed to be making his way to the county of Powhatan.
