and perfect as any which submitted 10 their
examination, and the proof TO sustain II aonaoany
clear enough the prompt and decisive reecon
of Latiners claim TO be free under some supposed deed
OF emancipation.
The slave after previous and almost successful at
tempt TO escape from his master, ran away second
time on the 4th Of October last, and travelling north
ward arrived in Boston the 9TH of the said month
On the next day uhe Sth,) he was seen at the Post
Office in that city by VIM. Carpenter, who had been
in the employment OF Mr.. Gray, but was then resi-
dent in Boston, and upon being accosed by c. 10 whom
he was well known, he originally denied oil knowledge
Of his nterrugator and claimed TO be free man named
Albert Masn. Upon being more closely questioned
how ever by Mr. Carpenter, he ultimately admitted that
he was the slave of Mr. Gray, and that he had run away
from his masters service few days before that meet.
inr This information was Immediately communicated
by Carpenter Gray who at once went IN pursuit oil

Procuring the and de,enson of the slave through

Gray were true and that attempt TO retain Latimer
