Kent, Sam - 1860

LOCAL MATTERS.
----------

Stealing Clothes.-- A negro called Philip, owned by Mr. William A Turner, and a runaway, was captured and caged last Sunday morning by Mr. James A Wilkinson, for stealing clothes of Sam Kent, a slave.  Yesterday morning the Mayor sentenced Philip to the lash, and then committed him to await the order of his master.
