RAN AWAY from the Subscriber about ten days ago, A NEGRO MAN, named PRIMUS, about 30 years of age and 5 feet 6 inches high, much marked with the smallpox, speaks remarkably fast, he is a cooper by trade. Whoever will deliver him to me in Savannah shall have one guinea reward. THOMAS GIBBONS. Savannah, Oct. 1, 1781.
