The North Carolina Advertiser (Fayetteville, North Carolina) Jun 30, 1796
RUN-AWAY on the 12 of May last, from the subscriber at 
Fayetteville, a negro man named BOB, 30 years old, country
born, very sensible, and speaks good English, of a yellow 
complexion, about five feet 10 inches high; had on a yellow
homespun coat, thickset breeches, a white homespun shirt and
a white broad cloth furtout coat, formerly owned by John
Willis, of Lumberton. --- Any person that will apprehend or
secure him in any jail so that I can get him, will be generously
rewarded.
N. B. Should any person take him, would warn them to keep
him in close confinement, as he will be apt to get away if there
is any chance.
June  16.                                     CORNELIUS WINGATE
