RUN AWAY, TWO NEGROES, named Pompey and Caesar. They were a considerable time with the late Mr. Watts, Ship-Carpenter, therefore must be well known in town, where they are supposed to conceal themselves. Whoever brings them to Vale-Royal, or the Warden of the Work-House, will receive 10s. and all charges for each of them.
