        "RUNAWAY SLAVES"ISSAC a young man about 21 years old,
well made, and stout, and inclined to beyellow, with broad features, and rather
likely--about 5 feet 6 inches to 5 feet
10 inches high.  He was a few days ago brought
from North Carolina, and was bought for me
in Gates county, of J. R. Reddick and Lassiter Reddick.
He left my residence on the 4th inst. forviolence offered the overseer.  He will
probably endeavor to get back to North Carolina.
At the same time, for no cause known, went
away, boy BILL; about 18 years old, very black
and stutters a little, remarkably shrewd, and
has unusual powers of calculating numbers.  Boy
GLASCO, about 21 years old, stout, healthy and
black.  He is rather more sullen than Bill. These
last two have been on my farm for several years.
  The boy Issac was brought out to Alabama by
Henry L. Thompson and was bought North Carolina
by Abner Howell, of Hertford county.
  Any person who will apprehend any one or all
the above named negroes, and deliver them to me
six miles South-east of Greensboro' or lodge them
in any Jail so that I get them, will be sactifactorily(actual spelling)
rewarded.               JAMES S. JONES
