Notes
Content: Printed on image: "Ran away from the subscriber on the 26th December, 1857, Negro Man Robert Carr. He had on when last seen on West River, a close-bodied blue cloth coat with brass buttons, drab pantaloons, and a low crown and very narrow brim beaver hat; he wore a small goatee, is plesant when spoken to, and very polite; about five feet ten inches high; copper-colored. I will give $125 if taken in Anne Arundel, Prince George's Calvert or Montgomery county, $150 if taken in the city of Baltimore; or $300 if taken out of the State and secured so that I get him again. Thos. J. Richardson, West River, Anne Arundel county, Maryland." "j13-w&s3w"
