Ran away

From the subscriber, on the right of the 29th of June, my negro boy Walker, about five feet high, brown complexion, full hard of hair, rather stout built; had on boots, dark pants, white woolen coat, and hat bound with blue and blue striped cotton shirt. Said boy was bought in this city on the 24th of June. He was brought from Clarks county, in the Valley of Virginia, and was formerly owned by Dr. Smith, of the above named county. I will give fifty dollars for his deliverance to me, or if placed in any place where I can get him.
