Twenty Dollars Reward. RUN-AWAY from the subscriber, about the middle of March last, a MULATTO t1AN servant named ROCHESTER; he is about 5 feet 6 inches high, of a slender make, and thin visage, his hair is naturally short and curly, though he frequently makes use of a false queue. The only part of his clothes which I can particularly describe, is a pair of leaden colored plush breeches, and a cloth waistcoat of the same color, with gold lace; he is possessed of an unusual share of cunning and address for a person in his capacity, and will no doubt attempt to pass as a free man. It is presumed he is somewhere in the town or vicinity of Richmond, as his relations live there. I will give the above reward of twenty dollars, to any person who will deliver said negro to me at this place, and pay all reasonable charges attending taking him up, &c. Or two-thirds thereof for having him secured in any jail, and intelligence sent me. CHARLES LOVE, Jun. Potowmack River, Boyd's Hole, May 12, 1788.
