$200 reward.

--Ranaway from the subscriber, on the 6th inst., my Negro Man, William Munroe, 28 years old; about 5 feet 6 inches high; stout; well built; color black wore a scraggy beard; small eyes, and has the peculiarity of not looking you in the face whilst speaking. Supposed to have forged passes or free papers. He may be in the city or lurking about my plantation on the Chickahominy, in Henrico. The above reward will be paid for the apprehension and conviction of the white man who is supposed to have enticed him away; $100 if arrested and delivered on board a vessel or out of the State; $20 if arrested and delivered in the city or adjoining county.
