Absconded,
FROM the Plantation of the subscriber, at Black Swamp, on
the 7th inst. without the smallest provocation, the following
Negroes, viz. —
BILLY, a Negro Fellow, about 25 years of age, and —
SILVIA, a Wench aged 20 years. — The Fellow having been
accustomed to a sea-faring life, and wishing to go on board
ship, may attempt so doing — He has the marks of a severe
correction upon his back, and his ears are trimmed by taking
off the top rim ; he also limps when he walks. The Wench is
yellow and pock-marked. All masters of vessels are cautioned
against taking them away. A generous reward will be paid upon
their commitment to Jail, or delivery at my plantation.
Adam F. Brisbane.
