isement from _The Cambridge Democrat_ of Nov. 4,
speaks for itself--
$300 REWARD.--Ran away from the subscriber, on Saturday night
last, 17th inst., my negro woman Lizzie, about 28 years old. She
is medium sized, dark complexion, good-looking, with rather a
down look. When spoken to, replies quickly. She was well
dressed, wearing a red and green blanket shawl, and carried with
her a variety of clothing. She ran off in company with her
husband, Nat Amby (belonging to John Muir, Esq.), who is about 6
feet in height, with slight impediment in his speech, dark
chestnut color, and a large scar on the side of his neck.
[Illustration: ]
I will give the above reward if taken in this County, or
one-half of what she sells for if taken out of the County or
State. In either ease to be lodged in Cambridge Jail.
Cambridge, Oct. 21, 1857.
ALEXANDER H. BAYLY.
P.S.--For the apprehension of the above-named negro man Nat, and
delivery in Cambridge Jail, I will give $500 reward.
JOHN MUIR.
Now since Nat's master has been introduced in the above order, it seems
but appropriate that Nat should be heard too; consequently the following
letter is inserted for what it is worth:
