Run away from the subscriber, in Lancaster, on the 9th of
this instant (July) a Virginia born Negro fellow named
George, about twenty six years of age, five feet seven or
eight inches high, a well made fellow, tolerably black, has
a small scar across one of his eyebrows, and a nick in the
under part of one of his ears, but which I cannot be
positive.  He speaks clear, discourses well, and plays well
on the fiddle. . . . [signed] Richard Chilton.
