Run away, from the subscriber some time ago,a tall, black, raw-boned MAN of the Mundingo country, was marked on the right shoulder FB, but the mark may be worn out, is middle aged, and remarkable for his two front teeth, and has been used to wharf. Also LUCKY, an elderly fellow of the Congo country, of a yellowish complexion, short and thick made, and has a large scar occasioned by a sore, on one of his legs. He is well known in St.Ann, in some parts of which parish he was supposed to be harboured; he was formerly the property of, and a cook to Mr. WHITEHORNE. He is very fond of being at negro plays as a Gumba man. Whoever takes up both or either of the above slaves, shall recieve a pistole for each; and if either of them are harboured, ten pounds will be given to the informer, on the conviction of the offender, if a white person and five if a mulatto or negro.
