$100 Dollars Reward
Ran away from the U.S. Saline, Illinois, on the 14th February, a Negro
Man,
named Dick, 5 feet 8 or 9 inches high, stoutly made, 22 or 23 years old,
and
very black and ugly. He has a small scar on his forehead, cut with a
knife,
and one on his left breast. His feet singularly shaped, being very
narrow at
the heel and broad at the toes - his eyes are generally red. He is fond
of
spirits and will steal anything upon which he can lay his hands. He is
the
same fellow that absconded from Mr. David Garnsey of Missouri last July,
and
who was put in Herculaneum jail for attempting to commit a rape upon a
white woman. From some circumstances I am disposed to think he will go
down the river, but whether he will endeavor to get into Texas, or stop
in
any of the states or territories bordering on the Mississippi is
doubtful.
Any person taking up with said Negro within this state shall receive a
reward
of $50; and if taken anywhere out of the states, and notice given me
thereof,
so that I obtain possession of him again, a reward of 100 dollars, and
all
reasonable charges for bringing him to me.
