WILLIAMSBURG, August 3, 1774. RUN away from the Subscriber, a Negro Man named BEN, middle sized, well set, very black, has lost his right Eye, stoops a little when he walks, appears to be about 50 Years old, and speaks such broken English that it is scarce possible to understand what he says; had on, when he went away an Osnabrug Shirt, and an old Pair of white Russia Drab Breeches pretty much torn. Whoever apprehends the said Slave, and conveys him to me in Williamsburg, shall be rewarded for their Trouble, besides being paid what the Law allows. PETER PELHAM.
