Ranaway--$800 Reward

--From the residence of the subscriber, on the 30th Nov., Negro Boy Isaac, about 30 years old; 5 ½ feet high, ginger-bread complexion, of pleasant and polite manners, hair short and nappy, and is left-handed. I will give the above reward for the apprehension and delivery of said boy in the jail at Orange C. H.

This negro ran off in consequence of having committed a most brutal and unprovoked murder upon the person of my overseer, and it behooves the community at large to be on the look-out for this criminal. He may be in the vicinity of Fredericksburg, where he has acquaintances.

Louisa C. Taliaferro,

Rapid Ann P. O, Culpeper county, Va.
