30 Dollars Reward. WILL be given to any person who will deliver to me, or confine in any gaol in this State so that I get her again, a likely yellow NEGRO GIRL.* 18 years of age, who ranaway about nine months past. She is an artful lively girl, and will, no doubt, attempt to pass for a free person, has a notable scar on her right elbow, occasioned by a burn. I have been informed she is lurking in and about Edenton. The above reward will be given on delivery of the girl, or notice of her confinement be satisfactory announced. Benj.[Benjamin] P. Wells. Murfreesboro', Jan. 5, 1812. * If this Girl has a name, the owner would have done well to have announced it to the pubic. --Pr.
