eight or nine inches high, oreitv well set, with a large woolly head
and large beard, walks with his knees bent, often complains of
pains in his feet and ancles—by trade a bricklayer, {tone mason and
plafie'-er. He is a very handy fellow as a house-waiter, and is fond
of ft:ch bufmefs. He is a great difT-mble'r, and no doubt pretends

the Northern States, as he often mentioned having friends there.—
Twenty Dollars reward will be given to any p p rfon that will se
cure said Negro in any jail, so that the fubferiber may get him
again; and reasonable charges will be paid—or Thirty Dollars
will be given if he is brought to Prince William County, Virginia,
