PG-P.768.032
4 Aug 1768:21 (2067 Supplement)
Sussex County on Delaware,Three-Run Mills, June 24, 1768.
Run away, from the subscriber, on the 13th of September
last, one Mulattoe slave, named Harry, about 40 years of
age, 5 feet 6 inches high, and well set. Had on, when he
went away, a brown cloth coat, white linen jacket, and brown
breeches; he was bred a miller, and understands very well
how to manufacture flour, and can invoice the same; is much
given to strong drink, and playing on the violin;
understands the carpenter's and millwright's business
middling well; was removed from East-New-Jersey in the year
1762, by one Nicholas Beight, who lived at Rockey-Hill and
kept a mill. The said fellow had a free wife, named Peg,
and two children which are supposed to be somewhere in the
province of East-New-Jersey. I am told the said Mulattoe
has got a pass. Any person or persons that will secure the
said Mulattoe in any of his majesty's goals, so that the
owner may have him again, shall have ten pounds reward, and
reasonable charges, paid by Mr. Charles Wharton, merchant in
Philadelphia; or by Levin Crapper.
