Died ---- Suddenly, about 5 miles from this place, on Thursday night
last, Mrs. Betsey Barkman, wife of Mr. Jacob Barkman. The evening
preceding her death, she prepared supper as usual, and retired to rest
at the usual hour, apparently in good health. Some time in the night her
husband was awoke by an unusual noise, when he discovered that she was
in the agonies of death. She expired in a few minutes, leaving a husband
and four small children to mourn the untimely death of an affectionate
wife and tender mother.  |

200 Dollars Reward
Ran away from my plantation on Tensaw, Alabama, about the 10th of May
last, two Negro fellows of the following description:
BASIL
About fifty years of age, six feet and upwards high, --very black;
speaks English and French, and is a plausible fellow at telling a story.
NED
Between thirty and thirty -five years of age, five feet eight or nine
inches high; of a complexion between a mulatto and black, and is very
shrewd, but will hesitate when closely questioned.
The above Negroes left this neighborhood on the same evening with a
certain STEPHEN STAPLETON, who left his wife and family in distress and
absconded with another woman, taking with him two small Negroes of his
own, and I have reason to believe stole mine.
Stapleton is about forty-five years of age, five feet seven or eight
inches high, of a ruddy complexion; black hair, a good deal mixed with
grey; is supposed to have gone to East or West Tennessee or perhaps to
Red River, Louisiana.
I will give the above reward for securing the above Negroes in any jail,
if taken out of the state, and half that sum if apprehended within the
State.
