Runaway--$50 reward

--Runaway, my girl Maria; about 35 years old; gingerbread color; height about 5 feet 4 inches; has a child at the breast four weeks old. The last heard of her she was opposite the Old Market, in an alley with free negroes, who are no doubt harboring her. The above reward will be paid on her delivery to John B Davis, on Franklin street, or to.
