Essex, October 1, 1771. Run away from the subscriber the
28th of last month, an apprentice lad named William Hudson,
by trade a tailor, about 19 years of age, of a small size,
wears his own light hair; had on a Virginia cloth coat of a
light colour, bearskin jacket, lead coloured duroy breeches,
some oznabrig shirts, Virginia shoes and cotton stockings,
can play tolerable well on the violin. He has been seen on
his way to Lunenburg court house. He went away in company
with one Francis Thompson, of a smaller size, and mean
appearance, an arch fellow, and pretends to know the slight
of hand. Whoever apprehends the said Hudson, and secures
him so that I get him again, shall receive forty shillings,
and reasonable charges paid, if brought home, near Bowler's
ferry. [signed] Richard Phillips.
