Monmouth county, New-Jersey, viz.
I. r rHE noted and valuable farm known by the name
1 of KILDAIR, lying in the township of Upper
Freehold, county and state aforefaid, containing about
300 acres ; excellent wheat, rye, corn and grass land ;
about zoo acres cleared, 70 acres of that mowable
meadow, the greatest part the belt of Englilli grass; a
good farm house of two itories, large barn, carriage

This farm is let for four years, commencing from the
firlt day of April last, at the annual rent of £. 125,
and pay all taxes.
2. One firm lying in said township, five miles from
the firft, containing about 200 acres, very good wheat,
rye and corn land ; about 150 acres cleared, a small
proportion of Engiifh meadow, a good farm house of
two dories, new barn just finifhed, a good bearing
orchard, &c. This farm is let this year only, for pro
duce, at the present price of produce ; will not amount
to less than £. 75 per annum, and pay all taxes. These
two farms arc well situated between the two markets,
New-York and Philadelphia, at the didance of 12
miles from one landing, and 16 miles from the other.
3 The old and noted tavern in the village of Free
hold, now kept by Cornelius Hagaman ; large stables,
ball-ally, about 25 acres of highly manured land, chief
ly in orchard ; 75 acres of woodland at the distance of
two miles ; improvements now making to this house.
This is let this year only, for 100 L and pay all taxes.
4. Also 100 acres lying between Mil's Wikoff's farm

woods belonging to Mr. Barclow, about half a mile

meadowland. This will be fold with or without the'
tavern, as may best suit the purchaser.
5. A small farm in Shrewfbury townlhip, near Black
Point, containing 60 acres, about 40 acres cleared,
8 of that good English meadow ; a good farm house of
two stories now finilhing. This farm is let three years,
commencing from the firft day of April, 1783, at the

6. The house where the . subscriber lives, convenient
for a Ihop-keeper, it being built for that purpose, and
a good stand for business ; carriage- house, stables, hay
loft, &c. about 10 acres of land, including a pasture
lot at 300 yards distance.—Either fell or let this for a
number of years, which may firft offer. The rents are
annexed for the government of those who may think
of purchasing. From the rents an easy calculation may
be made, and save unnecessary application. It has been
generally esteemed lands rented at 4 per cent, per an
num, equal to money at 6 or 7 per cent, interest, mere
ly from the certainty of getting the rent when princi
pal and interest of money is very often loft. The sub
scriber is disposed to fell all the above lands low, on
the following terms, viz. the purchaser paying down
one-fourth part, the remaining three-fourths may rest
on security for three years, interest being annually paid
at 4 per cent. Indisputable titles will be given for the
whole. Persons who may incline to purchase confif
cated estates, may be fuppiied with contractors' certi
ficates to a considerable amount, at 4 per cent, interest,
fonfour years. Also one-sixth part of a farm lying on the
head of Elizabeth river, in Essex county, containing 166
'acres, returned to John Forman, deceased, September
1, 1744- Also one-sixth part of a tract of woodland
near Shark river, in Shrewsbury townlhip.

Fifteen Pounds Reward.
Ran away, on the 4th day of October, 1784, from
the subscriber, living on Deer-Creek, in Harford
county, Maryland, a negro man, named
O L 1 V E R,
I hough commonly called NOL.
HE is a well set fellow, about thirty years of age,
five feet fix inches high, of a good black co
lour, a high round forehead, middling large cars and
mouth, his feet and legs are of the larger size, with
a small fear over and across one of his eye-brows (I
think his right eye-brow)—He is left-handed. Had
on and took with him when he went away, a brown
cloth coat with bright-faced buttons, a white jacket,
white fliirt, and some kind of trowfers, shoes and
stockings, with some things in a bundle. He proba
bly will change his name and procure a pass, and en
deavour to pass for a freeman. He once before ran
away, and was taken up in Pennsylvania, by the above
described fear. Whoever takes up said fellow, and
delivers him to his master, or secures him in any gaol,
so that his master may get him again, shall have the
above reward, paid by
N. B. It is thought there is a yellowish fellow in
company with him, who is also run away, that has
been used to the water, and that they may attempt
following that profeffion ; and that they will probably
make for Pennsylvania, New-Jersey, New-York or
New-England. All masters of vessels and others are
forewarned from harbouring or carrying him or
them off. iw*
