One hundred dollars reward

--Let my premises, on the morning of the 26th ult, my servant boy Griffin. He is rather short, very black, has short hair, and an ugly looking thumb from a whitlow. He had on when he left drab pants, blue rack coat, scorched hat, and checked vest; he also carried with him a black cloth suit. He is very quick and smart. I will give the above reward for him if taken some distance from the limits of the city, and fifty dollars if taken within the limits. I have good reason to believe he will attempt to make his way North.
