They would either be taken back to their owner, and the owner would most likely torture them to death, or the person who caught them would kill them on the spot
During 1700-1800s...

they will get whipped (with a whip or piece of leather) or/and part of their foot cut off. OUCH!

They'd do this in front of other slaves as a lesson, or threat, to them. The white slave owners knew that if the slaves knew this would happen, they'd be less likely to want to escape.

Usually, if it was only the first time a slave had run away, they'd just get whipped, but any more times and "off with the toe", or if not- worse.

During the era of slavery, slaves were not considered as fully human. According to history, slaves were considered as three quarters human. Therefore, the Slave owner could choose extremely violent punishments without conscience.
they would get their feet or hands cut off and they would not get food or sleep for 24 hours and if the male gets caught they get their testicals chop off
They would be horribly punished or beaten to death if they did not follow their owners commands
They were whipped normally by other slaves while the white man was watching and if that slave was caught running away again then theyy would cut bits of the slave off
They were usually beaten to discourage further escape. There are some stories of shackling them much like was done with chain gang prisoners.
Terrible things. There was nothing worse for a slave than escaping, but being discovered or caught by slavecatchers. Most of the time, they would get severely whipped, part of their tongue would be cut off to prevent speech (so others wouldn't know how to escape), or chains around the feet or neck to prevent escaping a second time.

Running away was always very difficult to do, because everywhere in the south, there would be slavecatchers. In Ohio even, looking for a fat reward for runaway slaves.
Lots of times slaves would get hurt by being whipped or even getting shot in the foot. This does sound quite cruel but thank god that this still doesnt happen in life today
the slave was returned and badly punished. but the slave catcher was rewarded with money.
If a slave tried to escape from a Southern state, they might be killed, or at the very least, beaten and returned by to their master. Most slaves were not freed until the end of the war.
If they were foung while trying to escape they be brought back to their master to get beat, whipped, sometimes they cut their ankle and took out a part that we use to walk, or they even got killed
foot or hand cut off, deprived of food and sleep for 24 hours and the either castrated or burnt
it depends on the owner, they would be most likley be cuffed to the ground at their ankles and wipped, and if they kept doing it, they might have been killed
