whom he was hired, a NEGHO MAN, named CiESAR;
33 years of age ; about 5 feet Bor 9 inches high; well j
made; of a yellowilh complexion ; a little pockmarked:
has, whenfpoken to, rather a down look, and submissive 1
, tone of voice: the clothes he had before he abfeonded
were of plain, such as labouring Negroes usually wear,
but these he may probably exchange for others : he will a *=
doubtless endeavour to pass for a freeman, having, as I
have been informed, assumed the name of Butler : I have
reason to believe that he went to Baltimore, from whcnce —
he is said to have gone to feme part of the Sufquehannah,
' probably with a view of getting to Pennsylvania. A
reward of Thirty Dollars will be given to the pcrfon who ,
! may take him and so secure him in some jail tha: I may
get him again, if taken in this state, and Fifty dollars if or
taken out of the state, and if brought home or feenred in fa _
the jail of Prince George's county all reasonable charges w
will be paid by ALEXR. COVINGTON. toi
