Three Guineas Reward.

Run away from the subscriber in January last, a NEGRO FELLOW named Liberty, a taylor by trade; he is a thin small fellow, and well known in Charlestown; I therefore forbid all persons whatsoever from employing him or harbouring him, as they may depend on being prosecuted to the utmost rigour of the law; and whoever will take him up, and deliver him to me in Church Street, No. 22, shall receive the above reward.

Samuel Stent
June 5th, 1781.
