Transcription
RAN away from the subscriber, the 18th of August, a Negro man by the name of Cato, about 23 years old, well built, of a jet black, carried away with him a dark brown coat, a pair of yellow linen overalls and other cloathing. All persons are forbid harbouring said negro or trusting him on my account; and whoever will return him to me shall receive five cents reward, but no charges.
