A PROCLAMATION.
cA N HEREAS there is too much reason to believe
that Several Persons, in breach of their Al
- have made a practice of exporting
<from this Town, and other parts of the Pro
vince, Arms, Ammunition and other Warlike
, Stores, for the supply of the Rebels, and
—to th e great prejudiceof His Majesty's Ser
vice; for prevention whereof, I have thought fit, hereby to
offer a Reward of FIVE HUNDRED POUNDS ftcrling, to
any Person, or Persons, who shall make difeovery of fucli
atrocious offenders, so that he cr they may be brought to
condign punishment.
And any Negro privy to filch iniquitous practice, or to
whole-knowledge it may come, and shall give information as
above, will thereupon be entitled to his Freedom in the fulleft
sense, and receive, for such his fidelity to the King's Govern
ment, an handsome gratuity.
