Ran away from Mr. Davis Stone in Loudoun County, Virginia, on Saturday the

19th ult., a Virginia-born NEGRO MAN, named WILL between 5½ and six feet

high, stout made twenty seven years old, of a black, complexion, round

shouldered and down look, when spoken to is apt to grin, is an artful

sensible fellow, much accustomed to driving a wagon, is good at any kind of

plantation business, tolerably ingenious, and I am informed, has a pass;

had on, and took with him one white hat, one white cassimere coat, a little

worn, one blue broadcloth ditto, almost new, a drab coloured coat and

breeches, quite new, one red waistcoat, one cassimere ditto, one striped

ditto, one pair cassimere breeches, a pair of fustian ditto, several

shirts, both coarse and fine, one pair of mixed yarn stockings, blue and

white, shoes with buckles, and the soles are nailed; it is probable that he

may change his clothes, AS HE HAS PLENTY OF MONEY. Whoever takes up the

said fellow and secures him in any gaol, so that I may get him again or

deliver him to me near the Falls Church shall receive the above Reward and

all reasonable charges, paid by
