RUN away from Charles-Town, the 7th instant, a negro fellow named ANTHONY, of a yellow complexion, this country born, a carpenter by trade, had on when he went away an under jacket,
called a robbin, welted with strip'd tape, a check shirt, and a white one under it. Whoever
apprehends the said negro, and carries him to the work-house, shall have FIVE POUNDS reward,
and all reasonable charges paid, by ALEXANDER RANTOWLE.
