ISAAC; A Runaway Negro Man.
20 Dollars Reward.
Ranaway on Tuesday the 31st day of August, from the subscriber living in Ann-Arundel county, near Baltimore, a likely well set Negro Man, named Isaac, about 27 or 28 years of age, 5 feet 8 or 9 inches high, had on when he went away a white kersey jacket and breeches, a pair of coarse white yarn stockings, an old pair of shoes about half worn – and took with him other clothes that cannot be described; also rode off a black mare about 13 and a half hands high, belonging to the subscriber. Whoever apprehends said Negro and Mare, and secures them so that the master may get them again, shall receive the above reward, and all reasonable charges paid if brought home, by
John Hammond, Sept. 30
