$10 Reward.
RANAWAY from the subscriber living in Chulahoma, Miss, a negro man by the name of Porter - The said boy is about eighteen years of age, well grown, yellow complexion, very likely, and rather slim, about 6 feet high; he had on when he left a mixed frock coat, a fur hat, and a good stock and other clothes. I bought said boy in Bedford county, Tenn., about 18 months ago. I have heard that said boy has been seen going towards Memphis, Tenn. It may be possible that he may attempt to get on a boat; or, he may attempt to get back to Middle Tenn. I will give the above reward of ten dollars to any person who may take up said boy and secure him in any jail so I get him again.
THO. B. COLEMAN
