Transcription
RUN AWAY, from the subscriber, about a fortnight ago, A SMALL NEGROE FELLOW, named JACK, formerly the property of Alexander Wright, Esq. he some time ago received a cut across the wrist of his left hand, and had not perfectly recovered the use of it when he went away; as he speaks good English, and is very artful, he may possibly attempt to pass for a free man. All Masters of vessels are forewarned against carrying him off the province; and any person who will deliver him to be at Augusta, or to the Warden of the Work-House in Savannah, shall receive a reward of twenty shillings. JAMES GRIERSON. N.B. He beats the drum, and blows a little of the French horn.
