May 4th, 1752 Ran away from the subscriber in Lancaster
County, a convict servant woman, named Sarah Knox, alias
Howard, of middle size, a swarthy complexion and has a short
nose, talks broad, and says she was born in Yorkshire, had
been in the Army for several years with the camp in
Flanders, and at the Battle of Culoden, where she lost her
husband; she had on when she went away, . . . [4 lines
clothing] She may go by the name of Sarah Howard, Wilson,
or something else, pretend to be a dancing mistress, will
make a great many courtesies, is a very deceitful
insinuating woman, and a great lyar.
Whoever apprehends and conveys her to me shall have a
pistole reward besides what the law allows, or if any person

other way he may purchase between 5 and 6 years service of
her at fifteen pounds currency, from [signed] David Currie.
