My negro man Tom ran away on the night of the 31st August last, from Cabarrus County. He is about 22 or 25, black complected, blue coat and pantaloons, with a black fur hat (fashionable) about 9 inches high, stout built. I believe he has been persuaded to leave by some white person who has promised him freedom.
