said to his mates before he went away,
he was uneaf, with his Guardian, and
intended to keep out of his way till he|
was of age ; that he had thoughts either
of going to tea, or to the eastern parts of
the United States. But as almcft one'
year has expired fioce he has been of age, |
(if living) and no intelligence has ever|
been gained of the ladlince he went a-1
way, the disconsolate mother is anxious|
to gain information of her son if possible ;|
as foe has been bereaved of her hufband,l
and three children with this one, and butl
one left to condole with herin her afflic-|
tions.
He was an aaivs, fprighrfy lad, ofl
middling fixture, dark complexion, with 1
brown hair and eyes.
