stance from
Washington to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

In the meantime George Parker, the so-called owner of Daniel and Maria,
hurriedly rushed their good names into the "Baltimore Sun," after the
following manner--

"FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS REWARD.--Ranaway from my house on Saturday
night, August 30, my negro man 'Daniel,' twenty-five years of
age, bright yellow mulatto, thick set and stout made.

Also, my negro woman, 'Maria,' forty years of age, bright
mulatto. The above reward will be paid if delivered in
Washington city. GEORGE PARKER."

While this advertisement was in the Baltimore papers, doubtless these
noble passengers were enjoying the hospitalities of the Vigilance
Committee, and finally a warm reception in Canada, by which they were
greatly pleased. Of Benjamin and Daniel, the subjoined letter from Rev.
H. Wilson is of importance in the way of throwing light upon their
whereabouts in Canada:

ST. CATHARINE, C.W., Sept. 15th, 1856.

MR. WILLIAM STILL:--_Dear Sir_--Two young men arrived here on
Friday evening last from Washington, viz: Benjamin R. Fletcher
and Daniel Neall. Mr. Neall (or Neale) desires to have his box
of clothing forwarded on to him. It is at Washington in the care
of John Dade, a colored man, who lives at Doct. W.H. Gilman's,
who keeps an Apothecary store on the corner of 4-1/2 and
Pennsylvania Avenue. Mr. Dade is a slave, but a free dealer. You
will please write to John Dade, in the care of Doct. W.H.
Gilman, on behalf of Daniel Neale, but make use of the name of
George Harrison, instead of Neale, and Dade will understand it.
Please have John Dade direct the box by express to you in
Philadelphia; he has the means of paying the charges on it in
advance, as far as Philadelphia; and as soon as it comes, you
will please forward it on to my care at St. Catherine. Say to
John Dade, that George Harrison sends his love to his sister and
Uncle Allen Sims, and all inquiring friends. Mr. Fletcher and
Mr. Neale both send their respects to you, and I may add mine.

Yours truly,

HIRAM WILSON.

P.S.--Mr. Benjamin R. Fletcher wishes to have Mr. Dade call on
his brother James, and communicate to him his affectionate
regards, and make known to him that he is safe, and cheerful and
happy. He desires his friends to know, through Dade, that he
found Mrs. Starke here, his brot
