RUN away from the fubferiber about the middle of last
month, TWO NEGROES, named Will and Sall.—Will is a
young fellow, about 20 years of age, five feet fix inches high, black,
and something pock-marked, is a great thief and lyar, remarkable
lazy, and loves rum ; he carried with him a bright brown coloured
Kerfeymire coattee, waistcoat and breeches, a drab coloured broad
cloth ditto, with old spangled buttons, a hat with a yellow band,
and the crown covered with the skin of a large bird; as both the
suits of eloathes were made for me, they are confiderabiy too large
for him, This being the fifth time of his having eloped from me,
without any cause, and for which he has never received any punifh
mqnt, I hope whoever apprehends him will be so good as to give him
a severe whipping. He has now enticed away with him, a young
mulatto of muftee wench named Sall, about 18 or 20 years of age,
five feet two or three inches high, flat nosed, is a remarkable lyar,
very artful',' and tells a plausible tale ; Die carried with her a red ne
gro cloth jacket or wrapper, a white plush ditto, a yellow quilted pet
ticoat, and some other eloathes not known I have had information of
the fellow having been seen in town; but as he has a number of relati
ons living upon Wadmelavy and Edifto Islands, I have reason to believe
they will skulk about there.—l will give FOUR DOLLARS to any
person for delivery of each to me, of to the Keeper of the Sugar-house
in Charleftown: And in order to make an example, and to prevent,
as much as possible, the villainous practice of harbouring runaways,
I will give a further reward of TEN GUINEAS on receiving proper
proof of them or either of them being harboured o n board of any ves
sel, or by any white person on shore ; and TWO GUINEAS if by a
negro, such proof enabling me to prosecute the offender to conviction.
