Forty Dollars reward.

--Left my farm near Keysville in Charlotte Co., Va, on Sunday, the 15th instant, my negro man George Braxton. I bought him of Hill & Co, as the property of Thos A. Lacy, New Kent Co., Va, in December last. His wife lives near Mr. Lacy's, where I suppose, he is making his way. He is a little under the medium height, black, has full whiskers, speaks rather indistinctly; had on when he left a Yankee blue overcoat and vest, black hat and patched pants. He is about 25 years old. I will give $30 reward for him if taken between my house and Richmond, and brought to my house, or $40, if taken in Richmond or beyond that place, and lodged in jail in Richmond so that I get him again.

Thos L Hundley,
Keysville, Va. fe 19--5t*
