Seventy-five Dollars reward

--Is offered for the apprehension and delivery of my slave William Henry, who disappeared from the fortification around Richmond about the 10th of December. Said slave is about 19 years of age, 5 feet high, thick set, thick of speech, gruff in manner of speaking, and generally clears his throat before beginning has a peculiarly formed head, protuberance on the bank of it, and eyes somewhat popped. The above reward is offered for the apprehension and delivery of said slave to me in Danville, or lodged in the jail in Richmond so that I get him in possession.
