Run-away

Run-Away FROM the subscriber's plantation about the fifteenth of AUGUST, TWO NEGROES. A Man, named Natt, who is very black, and rather tall, well known by the name of Cooper Natt.--A Woman, not quite so black as the man, of a low stature, lusty, of the name of Lusey. They appear to be about forty years of age, are country born, and speak good English. They have been hired in Fayetteville some time past.--It is supposed by their being long accustomed to live in the place, that they are lurking about it, or somewhere between there and the subscriber's plantation. Natt formerly belonged to William Hill, Esq. near Wilmington, and is well known there. Any person apprehending the said Negroes, and securing them so as the subscriber may get them, shall receive ample satisfaction, adequate to their service, from.
