TWO LIKELY
NEGRO MEN
RUN AWAY FROM THE SUB-SCRIBER,
Living in Mecklenburg county, Vir-
ginia:— ONE of them named PETER, went off about five years ago; he is very black, tall and slim, and had many scars on his back, occasioned by whipping for running away before I had him—he could work a little at the shoe, basket, and collar-making business: has very crooked shins, and if alive is now about 35 years old. The other went off the 14th of December last, and took with him my horse, saddle, bridle and great coat—he is of a yellow complexion, middle sized, has a limp in his gait and walks with his toes turned inward—he has been my miller for several years, is very sensible and pollaverling, and can read tolerably well—he was born near Williamsburg, and it is expected, he will make his way thither, or further to the northward, or, probably, over the mountains to the westward—his name is DAVY, but it is expected he will change it to BOB, or to MICAJAH FENDLY, having as some suppose, stolen said Fendly's freedom pass, which is returned in Mecklenburg county court.
The horse he took is a likely bay, about four feet eleven inches high, about nine years old, has the mark of some galls on his shoulders, steps very stately, holds his head high, especially when out of the bridle, his mane hangs on the wrong side. The saddle is country made and much worn. An old half-curb bridle. The great coat of drab colour, good cloth, with an old fashioned cape and a rent on the right side. He had on a good black velvet waistcoat and breeches, and other clothes of good Virginia cloth.
Whoever secures the above described men and goods or either of them, so that I get them again, shall receive a liberal reward.

FELLOW CITIZENS,
COMPELLED by the most weighty considerations which could influence a human creature, to lay a few observations before you, at a time when to appearance I have not an equal and fair chance, but to the dispassionate and feeling part of mankind, I need only observe, that my life and character, are the all important objects before my countrymen. I have surrendered myself prisoner to Maj. William Campbell and Mr. William M. Bledsoe, to answer every charge that may be brought against me; and in particular the charge at the court of Oyer. These gentlemen, I hope, have honor enough not to receive any reward on the delivery of my person.
At a time like this public opinion, and clamour, will have its weight with some, but of all I beg for EQUITY, and no more, and if nothing but my life will satisfy the public mind, or laws of my country, I must die; for leave, or fly my country, I never will.
I think it my duty to offer my reasons for standing out as long as I have, against the laws and dignity of this State. The length of time from my confinement to the court, and my not being bailed; and the loathsomeness of the jail, were my reasons for breaking: And withall I thought by not being precipitated into trial the truth of the charge would be more fully matured. The situation of the court since in not having any attorney to appear for the Commonwealth, or appointed at too short a period would probably be offered to put off the business, and so I
should have to be confined from court to court in that filthy and loathsome place.
These are and were, in short, my reasons. And as to those worthy gentlemen of Madison and Lincoln county, who so uniformly pursued me; if the thanks of one in my situation could confer honors for their firmness, for the execution of the laws of this State; I would give them my most grateful acknowledgements; and if I am hurried from the land of the living, I hope it will remain a monument of their HONOR and HONESTY.
Deeply sensible of my own situation, I come forward, to confess what is truth, in my charges: and to my expiring moments deny what is false, and hope and beg of my country, a fair and impartial trial.
And to God who rules all things I submit the event of my case.
I am, fellow citizens, With real attachment, Your prisoner.
THOMAS KENNEDY.
June 12, '795.
N. B. As I am to be confined in jail until the next sitting of the court of Oyer, I hope this will be taken as notice to prepare for trial by the State's attorney.
T. K.
Lexington Gaol, June 1795. MY COUNTRYMEN:
IT is true, I have by the laws of this State been confined for my conduct, and the numberless charges exhibited against me, have all conspired to my downfall; but none I believe have weighed more than my friendly treatment to William Devil Cox, in his late situation, under the laws of this State. I therefore, here give such a relation as may be relied on as the truth in that affair. Reports have circulated, that that man, had given me a bill of sale of his negroes, to secure them from being seized in his then situation: and that I had since realized them as my own property. This, with many variations as suited the times has been told. But the following are facts relative to the case. Long before a word of his felonious conduct was brought to light, Cox gave me his bond, for two likely negroes, for which I paid him down; he borrowed fifty pounds in cash at another time; I had taken up several of his obligations, and when he was apprehended and sent to gaol, I began to think of losing my debts on Cox, which moved me to go forward and be his bail; and while he was out on bail, I took a bill of sale and delivery of his negroes, and had it recorded in Madison court, on which I still advanced cash, added to the before mentioned, in full, amount to between four and five hundred pounds: While I was in my late situation, obliged to leave my house and all; Cox endeavored to show friendly; first to me, and then to the party in pursuit of me; and plotted to take my life; or have me apprehended, the better to cover a falsity which by this time he had contrived, after other alternatives to wrong me, asserted that the negroes were the property of his father-in-law, Colonel Charles Robertson, of the Territory, although the purchase and consideration paid by Cox to Robertson, can be proven by indubitable testimony in this State. On Sunday, the seventh of this instant, Robertson and Cox, came to my house, and did feloniously, by force and arms, seize and take away six negroes, for which I have Cox's bill of sale, and the said Cox went into Lincoln, and swore, next day, that the property of said negroes was in his father-in-law, Robertson. The day after my surrender in mentioning the cruelties of my situation to several gentlemen, and hearing Robertson, was yet in the country, they took me
to a magistrate, to see if nothing could be done in the case; where I accidentally very unexpediently met with Robertson, in presence of a number of gentlemen, on my telling him his son-in-law's owing me, agreed, that on Thursday, he gave his honor, to come to my house, and bring his son-in-law and daughter, and that we should have a fair settlement, and that the said Robertson, on settlement, would pay me out of those negroes himself, and that if anything failed on Cox's part, he would be answerable for the debt himself. We struck hands, bound in honor to comply, and myself on leave of the gentlemen with whom I was in custody, promised to attend. Accordingly on Thursday, the eleventh instant, I prepared myself for settlement, but no Cox appeared: Robertson plead for to stay until Friday the 12th instant, when Cox would come and should settle. As I was then in presence of a hundred or hundred and fifty men, amongst whom were a number of leading characters: The gentlemen who had me in custody called on them in form, for their advice, whether to go to gaol immediately, or whether a few days would injure the State, until their domestic concerns would permit, and my case would be more to light. The assurances received from the by-standers, and particularly from Col. Whitley, that he would in honor not concern with me, that he would do all in his power for me to have a fair and impartial trial, that he would ride a hundred miles to oblige me at any time, and when sent for would go with me to Lexington any time appointed by the gentlemen in whose custody I was. From these considerations, I was, I believe suffered to attend on Friday as aforesaid. Accordingly on the day, Cox and Robertson met, and we settled, and Cox fell in my debt 32L. 6s. 8d. after all credits he asked for: Some hesitation arose, it seemed then in Robertson's mind about the price of the negroes; however from his own prices it appeared as if it would take the whole except one, and 27 pounds in the price of that: He seemed astonished at Cox's due to me, and begged to put off having the negroes valued, until Monday, when he would bring back those he had taken away from me, & have them duly valued, to me to the amount of the debt—on which we parted; and on Monday I was suffered to return, and was then and have been since well informed that Col. Charles Robertson, of the Territory, and William Devil Cox, his son-in-law, did aid, convey, and assist in the taking said negroes through the wilderness, and I saw him no more.
These my Countrymen are facts which I just mention to you as a specimen of my situation, and treatment: Why it is, or how it came, that my case is as it is, I know not; but to you I look up for justice in each particular of my situation. In this loathsome and filthy place, I LIE NOT ABLE TO SEE MY SELF RIGHTED, the censures of the world, are with such malice and vehemence against me, that my friends, and those who have it most in their power to judge of my hard and cruel treatment from the world, and I am yet persuaded who think better of my principles than many at a distance do, are afraid to step forward.
I must confess my case bids fair for desperation and destruction; But all I have is in your hands or in the world, and they must do as they please. I make my appeal to you now; but I am deeply sensible that I have to answer to the great governor of Universal nature for all my conduct.
I am my countrymen, with due regard subject, Thomas Kennedy.

Lexington Gaol, June 24th 1795. Fellow-Citizens;
IN my last weeks publication, I promised to confess in my charges what was true, and to my expiring moments, deny what is false. It is therefore incumbent on me, to trouble you with another publication; and I beg it may not be read as foreign news, but consider it is the case of one of your country men, whose present and former situations in life, exhibit to the world, facts from which, every man of reflection may gather the uncertainty of the affairs of this world: and one who at this time has nothing scarcely to make existence desirable, whilst prospects the most gloomy, and the horrid cruelties of my situation are constantly with me.
I have one thing to ask of my country men, which is, not to condemn me for things unproven, nor let the false, and malicious charges of James French, conspire to take my life in my present trial. If I ought to die for the life of my fellow citizen that fell in my hands in the manner it did, I shall face my fate I trust, with becoming submission.
I have been informed, that this James French has swore several felonious actions on me, the particulars of which, I cannot in this jail controvert: But so far think it my duty to my self, to detail to you a short history of James French. He is by his own information, a deserter from Burgoyne's army, married in my neighbourhood, has been in my employ several years, and is a remarkable industrious hard laboring man, as much so as I ever had one, but spends his labor mostly in drink. Since my misfortune with Gillespie, French has been taken up on suspicion of stealing a plough hoe; tied and whipped, confessed the fact, produced the plough hid on my plantation, and I am informed, was asked in the course of his examination if he knew anything in regard of dishonesty in me? and affirmed not repeatedly. In this state of affairs, I dispatched him from my business. The people justly exaspe-
rated at his conduct, threatened to retake him on suspicion of other felonies, on which threats he lay out some time in the county of Lincoln, without the means of getting away from the country or without a friend or place to cover his guilty head. At length promises were proclaimed (I hope with good intention) that if he would come forward and make such confession as would discover on others, favor should be shewn him. At this favorable crisis, he comes forward, knowing my situation, and what would please the world—I can prove he said, and that by good testimony, that I had given him a whipping before he left me, and "he would be damned if he did not prove my eternal ruin."
He afterwards swore to several false and malicious charges and by examining the judges of the court of quarter sessions for Madison county, and all present before the court, and comparing that with other things on the same matter, sworn to, before one of the judges of the court of quarter sessions for Lincoln county, it will be found, that HE IS PERJURED, in the plain sense and letter of the law, and in my own accusations by this man, such contradictions as will appear that every time the story was told it was attended with such circumstances as to sit and wind with the situation of the teller; But in all his perjuries I have never been informed, that he accused me of laying a hand to any thing in person.
I have only one remark more at present, that is, from the circumstances that man was in, I beg a suspension of judgment in the public mind, until a fair trial on that head can be had, if I am permitted to live, to answer for my self: and if I never am, there are existing facts that will come to light, I hope, one day, to the reverse of my dishonesty, from any proof which can be given by that man.—Cruel, cruel as my case is, I yet have a hope that truth will come to light.
THOS. KENNEDY.
WHEREAS, different
reports are going through the country, depreciating general Thomas Kennedy's character—as it is said I have confessed to many felonious acts on the said Kennedy; I now solemnly declare the report false & malicious; neither can I bring forward any such charge, that would not be false. I never knew the said Kennedy to be the least concerned in felony. Given under my hand this 25th day of June '95.
Hugh Ross.
WHEREAS, it is reported, that I have confessed to some felonious crimes on general Thomas Kennedy, before col. William Whitley: I now declare the report false, altho' it is true that the said Whitley did use his exertions in order to get me to confess something on the said Kennedy: Not only that, but if I would so do, he would take my family to his own house, and he would set me up in my trade, and I should live like a gentleman; and also offered me five hundred pounds in security for so doing. I now leave his conduct for the world to judge: Given under my hand this 25th of June '95.

PARIS, March 18. BURNING OF ASSIGNS. On the 10th March at ten o'clock in the morning there will be burnt in the court of the new local, appointed for the verification of assigns, the sum of fifteen million of assigns withdrawn from circulation, by exchanges. The above sum joined to the two billions six hundred and ten millions 683,000 livres already burnt form a total of 2,625,683,000 livres.
OSTEND, March 11. The commerce of this port begins to be flourishing. Danish and Swedish ships bring goods and merchandizes of the first necessity, whilst the objects of luxury arrive from France, in order to be exchanged for other productions.
BRUSSELS, March 5. The Representatives of the People have prohibited the distillation of gin throughout all Belgium. The great number of distilleries was one of the non-execution of requisition for supplying the army with provisions. In fact these distilleries which in east Flanders alone, is 181 consumed daily, as much grain as would have been sufficient for the subsistence of 200,000 Citizens, as much fuel as would have served more than 5000 families, and as much oats as would have fed 2300 horses.
EDINBURGH, March 27. By a gentleman recently arrived
at Leith from Gibraltar, accounts are received, that the emperor of Morocco had broke off the conferences for peace between the States of Barbary and America, and had actually declared war against the United States. Hitherto the court of Portugal has not only prevented those piratical desperadoes from passing and cruizing near the mouth of the Streights, but has in various instances befriended the Americans as well by allowing them convoys as by endeavors to conclude a treaty of peace.

We have no account that the treaty has actually commenced; but that a great number of Indians had collected.

Lexington, February 28.
IN the year 1780, I executed a bond to Samuel Kelly, conditioned to convey 500 acres of land, being a moiety of a preemption of 1000 acres, granted to Samuel Bryan, assignee of which I cleared out on the shares, and the title became vested in me. And the said Kelly (as I have understood) having since died, and his representatives or those in possession of said bond being unknown to me: I do hereby request any person holding the said bond, and entitled to receive a conveyance of the land therein expressed, to produce the same and receive a conveyance, which I now am, and for a long time have been ready and desirous to make.

NOTICE, is hereby given, To all persons whom it may concern,
THAT having legally purchased of Holt Richardson, two Military entries, of one thousand acres each—one lying in the fork of the first fork of Licking, the other lying in the first of the middle fork of Licking. That receipts are in my possession for the purchase money, and Mr. Richardson's bond, in the penalty of one thousand pounds, conditioned for the conveyance of said lands together with a lawful power of attorney to Maj. John Cook of Campbell county, vesting him with power to convey said lands. And whereas by a publication in Mr. Bradford's paper of the 6th of April last, a certain Thomas Carneal Esq. of Fayette county assumes a power of acting under an authority derived from said Richardson, and has undertaken to declare that the powers vested in Maj. Cooke were fraudulently obtained. I therefore forewarn all persons from purchasing any part of said land, as the power vested in Mr. Carneal, was, it is to be feared, sought after and accepted by him with a fraudulent intention, he having a knowledge of the purchase made by me prior to his leaving Kentucky last year.
