Transcription
Run away from the subscriber on the 18th of September last, a negro fellow named Tony, a blacksmith by trade, and well known about Pocotaligo, formerly the property of Mr. Fitz; also his wife Flora; she has a scar on one cheek, and a blemish in one eye. They are suspected to be harboured about the Saltcatchers. One hundred pounds reward will be given for delivering them to me on St. Helena Island.
