RAN AWAY FROM the subscriber's brother, in Fluvanna County, about the 20th of December last, a Negro Man named BARTLET, nineteen or twenty years old, about five feet eight or nine inches high; he is rather blacker than negroes are commonly, his hair generally short and knotty, with remarkable short ears, his toes have been frostbitten, whether they will show it or not I cannot tell, he is crafty, artful, and free of talk, and can tell a very plausible tale. It is useless to mention the clothing he had on when he made the elopement, as I have heard of his parting with most of them; the last time I heard of him he was seen about Warren in Albemarle County, near the old Court-house. I am apprehensive he will make for the Southern States. Whoever will deliver him to me at Major John Key's, in Albemarle County, near Charlottesvile, shall receive TEN DOLLARS, besides what the law allows. WILLIAM MOORE. May 31, 1793.
