q mn REWARD-and, IN all probability, sasi-
- wv fy to DO seeprtd,-from satisfactory iu-
formation, kindly communicated TO tue subscriber by a
gentleman living in the upper part of Cumberland, il
seems almost certain that her man, BEN MosELEY, who
nus now been absent more than a twelveinonth, has OBJ
tanned Tree papers, filled up with the name of Duncan
Hoary, aud that he is thus passing, under this title, as n
tee man a fellow, whose description precisely cores
ponds with that of the subscribers Ben, was seen on the
10th of February, and examined by ,hfec or four diner-
ent persons, on the Buckingham road, both above and
hsiow taines tavern. lie had such a free pass as the one
spoken Of, and called himself Duncan Henry. lie, how
ever, told very different stories 10 different individuals.
10 one, he SAID that he was n boatman--th that his boat was
stu, on account OF ice-and that he was on his way to
Lynchburg To another, that he was in search of u lost
trunk and tot third, that he was travelling TO Buchanan,
IN Botetourt. IL any one of these tales We're true, il Is pro-
oably The first; Tor he long acted as a boatman on James
River, and IL is highly probable that he is often passing
between Lynchburg and Richmond. With a little excr-
ton, 1t is believed that any person in either of these
places might easily apprehend him. The above reward
whi be gwen for his delivery to me, living near Halls
boro, IN the upper end Of Chesterfield, or for his couine-
ment IN any Jail, so that | can obtain possession of him.
lie is a bright mulatto, stout aud likely, about 80 or 30
years OF age, and for one of his colour, has features unu-
suaiiy prominent His nose is very uncommon being
very much OF the Roman mould. IL is believed that his
speech is quicker than ordinary, and that there is a shot
scar on one oi his ears. ANN II. MOODY
