SIXTEEN DOLLARS REWARD.
RAN AWAY on the 20th March, a Negro Man, named YORK, late the property of Joseph Gaston, Esq. dec. about 25 years of age, 4 feet 6 or 8 inches high and very stout. Had on, a fustian coatee & trowsers, rorum hat and pair of bootees, and took with him sundry other wearing apparel — It is supposed he will recommend himself as a carman or Miller and probably change his name to John Smack. He is thick lips, bowed knees, very talkative, full of compliments, and fond of company. Whoever will confine him in any jail, or secure him so that the subscriber may get him shall receive the above reward.
ELIJAH EVERITT.
Hardwick, Sussex C, Apl. 1, 1805.
