SIX DOLLARS REWARD. RAN AWAY from the subscriber, about the middle of May last, a negro fellow named YORICK; he appears to be about thirty years of age, five feet six or seven inches high, slender made, and is an African born slave; had on when he went away, a drab coloured great coat, white waistcoat and breeches; shoes and stockings. I expect he is gone to a Mr. John Scott's, in Goochland county, as he once belonged to him, and I heard he had a wife there. I will give the above reward to any person that will deliver said fellow to me at Comely Bank, about two miles from Richmond, on the Williamsburg road, or one half to secure him in any jail so that I get him again. And I do hereby forewarn all masters or captains of vessels, from taking the above negro out of the state at their peril. ALEXANDER KAY. Henrico, July 11, 1793.
