Run-Away From The Subscriber About Eight Weeks Ago

A young Negro man named John, of a yellow complexion, about 5 feet 4 inches in height; he has been in the habit [of] serving the Newspapers about the country sometimes from which circumstances he is pretty generally known. Tippy is a name by which he is also known. It is supposed he is harboured at the Canaries Estate, where he has a wife, or at the estate of G. W. Mardenbrough. Esq. at Monkey-Hill, where he has a brother.
All persons are Cautioned not to Harbour or Employ, and Masters of Vessels against carrying him off the Island. A suitable Reward will be paid on his apprehension and delivery to the subscriber, from whose service he has absented himself without any cause whatsoever.
G. Cable
