Run away, on the 2nd of this Instant June from DANIEL LAWRENCE, of Flushing, on Long Island, a short thick Negro Fellow, named Anthony, with thick lips, is of a yellow Complexion, and plays on the Violin: Whoever takes up the said Negro, and secures him, so that his Master may have him again, and gives notice thereof to Ralph Hylton, of New York, shall be very handsomely rewarded for their trouble.
