$25 REWARD!
RANAWAY from the subscriber on Monday, June the 12th, 1843, a negro man named THORNTON, a mulatto, not very bright, about 30 years old—does not look to be more than 25 or 26 years old. He is 5 feet 6 or 7 inches high, has generally a smile on his face when spoken to. I will give $20 for him if secured in Memphis or in Raleigh Tennessee, so that I get him, or $25 for him delivered at my residence, near Lamar P.O. Marshall County Mississippi.
