The Woman is rather low in stature, well built, and about one or two and twenty years old: there is reason to suppose a black Fellow went off with them, who is of middling size, about 30 years of age--has rather an impediment in his Speech, and follows the Barber business--A handsome Reward will be given, with all reasonable expences paid for the first two named, to be deliverd to either of the Subscribers, or confined in any Jail with notice, so that the Subscribers get them again. It is supposed they have forged Passes with them. CHARLES KING, STEPHEN LLOYD. October 9th,
