Sf25 Reward,


~ THE undersigned has good reasons to believe
80 that man by the of Elijah Horn has
decoyed away or stolen her negro boy Monroe Said
negro left my residence, in Columbia county, Ark, on
Sunday, 29th October last, and will pay reward Of
1875 for his apprehension and delivery to me, his
being safely lodged in Jail that lean get him; and
will give s 100 for the arrest Of Horn and sufficient
evidence to convict him of the theft. The negro boy,
Monroe, is dark muatto, about 5 feet inches high
heavy set. square shoulders, and a down look when
spoken to; is about 20 years 81 age, was born in Ken
lucky, and brought to Arkansas years ago. Horn is
of fair complexion, sandy hair little inclined to red
ish color, about feet or 10 inches high, inclined to
corpulcncy, is of frank and open countenance. He
ports himself belonging to Kentucky; but this is
uncertain, as from circumstances recently developed,
it is believed that he is connected with clan Of
thieves. The direction he has taken is unknown.
