Farmer's Repository December 14, 1815
Thurs, Dec 14, 1815 edition -

            "20 Dollars Reward.
Ran away from the subscriber, on the 25th of March last, an indented 
apprentice, named ABRAHAM  HUNTSBERRY -- had one year, eight months and seven 
days to serve when he went away.  Had on a full suit of black domestic cloth, a 
new ro??m hat, and took with him other clothing not recollected; wore an old 
English Watch in his pocket -- 5 feet 5 or 6 inches high, light hair, grey 
eyes, long nose, big mouth, when he laughs, nearly from ear to ear.  A short 
time before he went away, he took his trunk to his uncle Christian Allemong's;  
he staid with him the first night he absconded, and the next day was seen going 
up the road towards Winchester, with his uncle's son and two of his horses, to 
another uncle of his, near Winchester -- he was seen at the foot of Negro 
Mountain, with 30 dollars in his possession.  I expect his uncles must have 
furnished him with this money, if not, he could not have come honestly by it.  
As for his honesty I have been much deceived in.  I will give the above reward 
to any person, who will bring the scoundrel back to me.
            MICHAEL  DUTRO.
Charlestown, December 14."

This is to give notice that I forewarn all persons from trusting my wife Mary 
Smith on my account, as I do not intend to pay any debts of her contracting 
from this date.
Given under my hand this 27th day of November, 1815.
                DANIEL  SMITH."
