May 24, 1773,  Ran away, last night, from the subscriber,
living in Garrison Forest, about 10 miles from Baltimore, in
Maryland, a mulatto slave, named Jack, about 5 feet 9 or 10
inches high, . . . [10 lines, physical description and
clothing.]  He plays on the violin.  Whoever takes up the
said slave, and secures him, so that his master may get him
again, shall receive, if in the province, three pounds, and
if out of the province, ten pounds, and all reasonable
charges paid by [signed] George Risteau.
  N.B. It is supposed the above runaway carried off with
him, from Gardiner's tavern, about 8 miles from Baltimore a
dark bay horse. . .
