frefh coloured Iriih-lookjng huffy, rather of a low fea
ture for a woman, and somewhat clumfey built, with a
pearl or blemilh on the light of one eye, (I think the right
one.) She was bred in Dublin, and hashad a good edu
cation, being am extraordinary good needle woman ; and
writes an uncommon good hand for a woman; and will
probably profefs herfelf a school mistress in a country
place.
She went o^ in company with a foldjer,named Patrick
Ohara, who deferred from the Maryland corps at this
place, and foe may probably pass herLff by the name of
Ohara. She isan artful huffy, apd will no doubt, make
use of an old indenture, of which I belive she is peffeffed,
to plead her freedom by, but for sundry mifdemanohrs,
she gave a new indenture for an additional term of two
and an hall years.
Whoever will apprehend the said Servant, and deliver
her to me at Fort Pitt, or to Colonel Thomas Gibson, in
Carlisle, or to Mr. Robert Campbell, merchant in Phi
ladelphia. or to Mr. Ignace Lebatt, merchant in Balti
more, shall receives Reward of THREE HUNDRED
DOLLARS, with' reasonable charges.
