Citation | VGW(HU.768.103 1 Sep 1768:33 (902) Run away from the subscriber in Amelia, in the year 1766, a black Virginia born Negro fellow, named Sambo, about 6 feet high, about 32 years old, and bends in one of his knees, but which I cannot tell. He makes fiddles, and can play upon the fiddle, and work at the carpenters trade. I have heard that he passes for a free fellow. Whoever brings the said Negro to me shall have 10L. reward.
