RUN away from the Subscriber, in Amherst County, the 10th of July, a Mulatto Woman Slave named SALL, though commonly goes by the Name of Sally Grey; she is of a middle Size, well shaped, Virginia born, and about 25 Years old; had on, when she went away, a brown Linen Jacket and Petticoat, and I cannot learn that she carried any other Clothes with her. She is of a numerous Family of Mulattoes, formerly belonging to a Gentlemen of the Name of Howard, in York County, from whence I purchased her a few Years ago, and where probably she may attempt to go again, or perhaps into Cumberland, or Amelia, where I am informed many of her Kindred live. I shall esteem it a particular Favour of those Gentlemen who have any of her Relations in their Possession, to have her apprehended, if she is discovered lurking about their Plantations; and I will give a handsome Reward, besides what the Law allows, to any Person who will deliver her to me. GABRIEL PENN.
