ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS REWARD.- Ran away from the farm of E. Ray, near Rock Creek Church, Washington county, D.C., negro man HENRY SMITH. He is 26 or 27 years old, about six feet high, square built, stands very straight; a very likely yellow man; presents a very pleasant appearance when spoken to; weighs from 190 to 200 pounds; has a good suit of hair and large whiskers, but they may be cut off; no marks recollected; if his whiskers are taken off he has a thick beard and bumps under his chin; he is a very fine servant; clothes not known, but generally well dressed. He ran away without any cause, supposed to have been enticed away by several others who ran away at the same time, one being his uncle. I will give the above reward if he is taken out of the county, provided he is brought home safe, or secured so that I get him again. ENOS RAY. june 18-e01w

In June 1850 I ran from Enos Smith, whose farm was near St. Paul’s Rock Creek Church in a rural part of Washington, DC. I left with my uncle and several others and may have had friends and family to hide and shelter us. My name was HENRY SMITH. #blackhistory #DChistory
