Four dollars reward.  Ran-away from the subscriber, on the
22d of September, at night, a Negro man servant, by the name
of Cato, about five feet eight inches high, very thick lips,

Had on when he went away, a cloth colour'd coat, with pewter
buttons, old  leather breeches, a tow shirt, old shoes with
silver plate buckles, wore a cap, and shaves round his neck,
and very high on his forehead:  Carried away with him a
callico banyan, fine linen shirt, check linen trowsers, gray
wigg, also carries or wears a felt hatt with a silver lace
on it, had a violin and carries it in a green bays bag. 
Whoever will return the runaway to his master in Winchenden,
shall have the above reward and all necessary charges paid
by Levi Nichol.  Winchenden, Sept. 23d, 1774.
