Description
$100 Reward - - Ranaway from the subscriber living 10 miles North of Liberty, Missouri, my negro boy Sam, of a mulatto color, about 20 years of age, about 5 feet 10 inches high, quick spoken, and makes free to commence conversation. He left my house on Saturday evening the 16th October about dusk.
He had on when he left a black fur cap very much worn, and an old blue cotton frock coat, and old brown cottonade pants, and a new pair of negro shoes and a heavy log chain around his neck.
The same boy ranaway from me on the first day of July last (1858) and was harbored in Dekalb County, about 3 miles North of Stewartsville, by a boy belonging to Jas. (James) Morgan. I had just got in possession of said boy on the Wednesday previous to his leaving me the last time.
I will give $100 for the delivery of said boy to me, or secured in jail so that I can get him. Thomas M. Gosney, October 25, 1858 - 1wDate(s) of Creation
