Forty dollars reward.  Run away from the subscriber, a Negro
man named Tite, who was lately taken from the enemy; he is
about 5 feet 6 inches high, looks very surly, has very thick
lips, can play upon a fiddle, and stole one that he took
with him.  Whoever will take up said Negro and secure him so
that the right owner may have him again, shall have the
above reward and all necessary charges paid, by James
Elliot, of Philadelphia, or Nathaniel Patten, of Hartford. 
N.B.  Said Negro can work at Farming very well, and it is
likely will try for employ.
