RAN-AWAY from the schooner Kitty, Captain
- John Bryan, on Saturday the 15th of April last,
a Negro Man named WATT, about 5 feet 9 or 10
inches high ; heis a likely straight well made fellow,
remarkably black, and has a bold daring countenance:
He formerly belonged to the,eftate of the deceased
Mr. George Maxwell, and was then under the ma
nagement of Mr. Samuel Nicholls, of whom I bought
him; he is an artful, cunning, plausible villain, and
will make use of every specious and fair tale to induce
belief of his being a freeman ; he is rather thin vifage
ed, and perhaps one of the blackest Negroes in the
world. I can't well describe the apparel he run off in,
he had a blue jacket and breeches of coarse French
cloth, Shoes, stockings and a hat, all of which he
took with him : He run off from the schooner while
she lay at Wells's ware-house, and a few days after
his going off, he was seen in the neighbourhood of
Mr. Isaac Spencer, in Kent county. The rascal made
arguntimrly effort to get on board the British fleet
when they were up Chefapeak Bay; I am induced to
bi ieve that he has the like object in view, and that
the villain has cither made for the Delaware Bay or
the Jerfies, or that he designs it. I will give Fifty
Dollars for securing him, if taken in this State; if
taken out of it, the above reward, and reasonable
charges if brought home. JAMES HUTCHINGS.
N. B. If taken in Jersey or Pennsylvania, please to
apply to William Pollard, of Philadelphia, gwt
