Description
On April 26, 1807, Elimas (also known as Limas) may have been sold to Archelaus Alloway, who advertised for his return in May. He had twice previously escaped John Hall. His description is largely the same as the advertisement in 1806, but the reward is doubled this time to $50. There is no indication that he was ever caught.
