FIFTY DOLLARS REWARD
Stolen from the undersigned in Twiggs County, on
Saturday the 30th Ultimo, a Negro Wench, named
MINTA, about five feet five inches high, light
complected, handsome features, slender person, about
twenty-four years old and seven months advanced in
pregnancy. As she took away with her several suits
of cambrick, calico, and course cotton, it is
impossible to describe her dress. It is supposed she
was stolen by a young man of the same County, and
who was believed to have kept her as a wife; and
itis probable they will attempt to reach some free
states. Fifty Dollars reward will be given for the
apprehension of the wench and thief, so that the one
be recovered and the other be prosecuted; or twenty-
five dollars for the wench alone.
