TO BE SOLD, SEVERAL valuable SLAVES, who can be well recommended, as they are parted with for want of employ only, viz. A miller who understands the milling business perfectly well, and is a very neat cedar cooper, and his wife, who has been used to all kinds of country work; a baker, who has been a foreman for some time; also a boatman, and a handy negro girl of 12 years of age, with a negro fellow somewhat advanced, who has tended in a mill, and understands the bolting business. For particulars enquire of HUGH GAINE.
N. B. To be sold, a good mill boat, very cheap.
