Runaway. MY Boy CALVIN ran away on the 1st day of October. He is about eighteen years old, five feet high, or nearly so, very black, teeth very white, had on when he went away white cotton pantaloons and shirt. I will give Five Dollars for the said Calvin, if taken in Onslow county, or confined in any jail. If taken out of the county, Twenty Five Dollars if delivered to me, or confined in jail, so that I get him. Again if he is killed, and delivered to me, dead or alive, I will give Two Hundred Dollars. The said Calvin is legally outlawed. I bought him about ten years of of Simeon Harrison, of Jones county. He may be lurking about in Jones, or he may go to Newbern, or Wilmington, and try to get on board some vessel bound to the North. I hereby forewarn all masters of vessels from taking him on board, under penalty of the law. O. HUGGINS. October 6th, 1838. 143 tf
