Fifty Dollars reward.

--Ranaway from, or was carried away from, Danville, Va., by some soldier passing from or through the above place, about last May, my boy Aleck, who was hired to Mr. Jesse H. Keen, of that town, Said boy Aleck is about 10 or 11 years old, well grown, bright mulatto, light, wooly head, sunburnt around the edges, and, as well as recollected, greyish eyes, open and pleasant countenance. I will give the above reward of Fifty Dollars to any one who will deliver him to me in Clarksville, Va., or secure him in any jail so that I get him again.

Geo. C. Scott, Clarksville, Va.

P. S.--It is believed that said boy was taken to the army by some one, as he was always greatly captivated by the military. se 26--4w
