RUN away from the subscriber, some time last May, a mulatto man named MILFORD, about 5 feet 8 or 9 inches high, slim made, and about 22 years old. One of his hands has been burnt, which has occasioned the upper joint of one of his fingers to grow down and join to the next; one of his arms has been broke, near his wrist, which may be perceived, as it was not well set. He passes for a freeman, by the name of WILL, and I understand has been employed for some time on board Mr. Hodge's vessel, and since has been taken up and put in Stafford jail, from which he broke out the first of this month, and crossed Potowmack river in a canoe, in company with a negro belonging to Col. Harrison of Nanjamy. I expect he will get on board some vessel, and pass for a sailor. Whoever will apprehend the said fellow, and deliver him to me, in Orange county, shall receive THREE POUNDS reward, besides what the law allows. All masters of vessels are hereby forewarned from harbouring or carrying off the said fellow. LAWRENCE TALIAFERRO.
