$100 Reward!
RANAWAY from the subscriber, near Brownsville, Tenn., on the night of the 1st of June, SILAS and ISHAM. Silas is a bright mulatto, full six feet high, 28 years old; walks erect, weighs 168 lbs., has bushy hair when combed out - sometimes has it tied up with strings; scarcely any beard; his under jaw-bone large for a negro; had on a black soft hat, soiled; had a cane with a brass door-nob on the end of it. Isham is about five feet ten inches high, dark copper color; weighs 150 lbs.; short, kinky hair; low forehead; large mouth; shows his teeth,when he smiles; has feet large, and turn out very much in walking; had on a cloth cap, rather small for him; had scarcely any beard, if any. Their intention is to go to a free State. They took with them their Sunday clothes, also some new osnaburg pants and shoes. They left without any cause. For the apprehension of said negroes I will pay $50 reward, if taken in the State; $100 if taken out of the State.
