Transcription

RUN away about the 10th of last month, from my plantation at Stono Landing, a NEGRO FELLOW named JACOB, of a yellowish complexion, by trade a carpenter, country born, he is a short well made fellow, had on a good coat made of brown corduroy, a blue broad cloath jacket, and white breeches. This is to forewarn all persons from harbouring him, as they may depend on being prosecuted. Any person delivering the said fellow to the Warden of the Work-house in Charlestown, or at my plantation at Stono Landing shall receive a reward of TEN POUNDS with all reasonable charges, from

ROBERT ROWAND.

June 10, 1777.
