TEN POUNDS REWARD. RAN away from the subscriber, the 22d inst. a negro man named HARRY, about thirty years of age, five feet eight or nine inches high, of a yellowish complexion, and well made. He is an artful fellow, can read very well, and pretends to be very religious. He took with him a red coloured coat, a blue velvet ditto, and sundry other cloaths that I cannot recollect. As he was raised in King and Queen county, it is probable he is lurking about there now, or in Williamsburg. I forewarn all persons whatsoever from employing or harbouring the said negro at their peril. I will give the above reward to any person that will deliver the said negro to me, or five pounds if secured in any public jail so that I may get him again. WILLIAM ROAN. RICHMOND, December 31, 1782.
