TWO SLAVES, one a young mustee fellow named Toby, twenty-four years of age, born at Goose Creek, but he lived at my plantation fifteen years; he has a sheepish, down-cast look, had on white negro cloth, but took all his other cloaths with him, and may alter his dress. The other is a short negro wench, very black named Betty , born in town, and was bought from Felix Long three years ago for a seamstress; she is well known in and about town, is very cunning and artful, and can tell a plausible story; she carried all her cloaths with her, some of them very good. Whoever delivers the above slaves, or either of them to my overseer on said plantation, or the Warden of the Work-house, shall received TEN POUNDS reward; and I will give FIFTY POUNDS to a white person, and Twenty to a negro, who gives information by whom he or she is harboured, so that the offender may be brought to justice, being determined to prosecute such with the utmost rigour of the law.
