ESCAPING IN A CHEST.

$150 REWARD. Ran away from the subscriber, on Sunday night, 27th

inst., my NEGRO GIRL, Lear Green, about 18 years of age, black

complexion, round-featured, good-looking and ordinary size; she

had on and with her when she left, a tan-colored silk bonnet, a

dark plaid silk dress, a light mouslin delaine, also one watered

silk cape and one tan colored cape. I have reason to be

confident that she was persuaded off by a negro man named Wm.

Adams, black, quick spoken, 5 feet 10 inches high, a large scar

on one side of his face, running down in a ridge by the corner

of his mouth, about 4 inches long, barber by trade, but works

mostly about taverns, opening oysters, &c. He has been missing

about a week; he had been heard to say he was going to marry the

above girl and ship to New York, where it is said his mother

resides. The above reward will be paid if said girl is taken out

of the State of Maryland and delivered to me; or fifty dollars

if taken in the State of Maryland.
