                          $50 REWARD
   Ranaway fronm the Subscriber, on the 2nd inst., his negro man, ALFRED. He 
is about six feet high and is very straight. He is 65 years old, and is said 
to have some Indian blood; he is dark copper color. He sighs very often, talks 
to himself a great deal. His clothes are good; he has a blue cloth overcoat 
with him which fits him close.
   He can use the tools of a carpenter or a shoemaker well. 
   The Subscriber apprehends that he will endeavor to make his way to the 
Yankees, and ultimately carry off other negroes from the County if he succeeds 
in getting to the Yankees once.
   I will give $25 for his apprehension, if taken in this County, and $50 if 
taken and confined in jail in any other county; and a reasonable reward for 
any information in regard to him.
   ALFRED was raised in Wake County by some one of the HAYWOODS.
