Old News From Anson County 1829
August 27, 1829, STAR (Raleigh, N.C.)
-NOTICE. Ranaway from the subscriber's plantation in Anson county, a negro man 
by the name of DEEN, about 35 years old, and remarkably black, with one squint 
eye.  DEEN had been confined in the Jail of Richmond county as a runaway for 
the last 15 months, from whence he made his escape, was retaken and lodged in 
the Jail of Lenoir county; was brought thence by the Jailor of Richmond to 
this place, confined in his Jail and sold out for his prison charges, at which 
sale he was purchased.  He took off with him his wife, a girl by the name of 
DOLLY, about 18 years old, also remarkably black, stout, and clumsily 
proportioned, the property of the Rev. ELIAS SINCLAIR, of this place; also 
another girl about 19 years old, by the name of JINNY, of a yellow complexion, 
and of ordinary size, the property of HAMPTON COVINGTON.  It is believed that 
said negroes are aiming for Pitt county, as negro DEEN'S wife recently was 
purchased there.   
Rockingham, Richmond county, July 24, 1829               W. F. LEAK
