Run away, from the Subscriber, a Negro woman named ESTHER, a washerwoman. She is an elderly wench, and yellowish complexion, formerly belonging to PASSY NEEDHAM a free mulatto woman. Also, CUBA, a seamstress, and SUKEY, her daughter; both which are remarkably well known in this town. The latter has often been caught on board sundry vessels in this harbour and at Port Royal. Whoever apprehends any or all of the above Negroes, and will bring them to the Subscriber shall be by her handsomely rewarded. Caution is given to all persons not to harbour any of the above Negroes, as they will be, on conviction, prosecuted to the utmost rigour of the law. SARAH FEURTADO.
