Transcription
RUN AWAY, a stout middle-aged MUSTEE-FELLOW, names HARRY*, (but sometimes goes by the name of MOSES) by trade a taylor, and well known in and about Savannah. He speaks good English, and is very artful, and may probably endeavor to pass for a free man, and make his escape from the province. All persons are therefore cautioned against carrying him off, and whoever delivers him to the Warden of the Work-house shall receive a REWARD of TWENTY SHILLINGS STERLING, besides all reasonable charges. ANREW JOHNSON.
