RUN-AWAY on the 12th 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 in a white broad surtout 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. CORNELIUS WINGATE.
