The Geography of Slavery

Virginia Gazette and General Advertiser (Davis),
Richmond, July 24, 1793.

Four Dollars Reward. RAN-AWAY from the Subscriber, on the 21st of June last, a Negro woman Named CICELEY, about 28 years old, very likely, bright coloured, has lost one of her fore teeth, has a large scar on one of her arms near the hand, cut by a scythe.--She formerly belonged to Mr. Holleback, in Culpepper, but I expect she will go to Richmond town, as she has formerly lived there. Whosoever secures said negro, so that I get her again, shall have the above reward, and reasonable charges if sent to Harrisburg in Rockingham county. Beware to secure her well, for she is very wicked and full of flattery. BENJAMIN TALLMAN. July 12th, 1793.
