RUN away from the Subscriber, in Northampton, about the 27th of November last, a Negro Fellow named JACOB, about twenty four Years of Age, middle sized, very black, and smooth faced, with little or no Beard, has a Stoppage in his Speech, and if strictly examined, or suddenly asked a Question, cannot directly give an Answer. He is supposed to be carried across the Bay by a certain Person who frequently passes and repasses from the eastern Shore to Norfolk and Portsmouth. Whoever secures him so that he may be restored to me shall have FIVE POUNDS for his Trouble, and all reasonable Expenses allowed, if he is taken on the western Shore, I will give TWENTY PISTOLES on Conviction of the Person who took him away. JOHN STRATTON.
