Fifty dollars reward.

--Ran away from my farm, in Goochland county, two miles from the James River and Kens who Canal, and forty-six miles from Richmond on the 25th of July, my boy Levin. Said boy is a very dark color, about 5 feet 3 or 4 inches high very stout and about 18 years old. The glands of his throat are swelled which gives him the appearance of having a very thick neck. He had on when he left a black velvet cap and dark worsted shirt. I purchased him of Capt Spence, who brought him from the Eastern shore of Maryland, and he is doubtless trying to make his way back there. The above reward will be paid for his safe delivery to me, at Boyle & Gamble's, in this city, or at my farm, in Goochland or in any jail in the State, so that I get him.

E Boyle [jy 30--1w*]
