Kingston, Feb. 7, 1801.
ABSCONDED from the subscriber, a few weeks ago, a Negro
Girl of the Mungola country, named PATIENCE; is of the middle
size, marked on the right shoulder IB, has a pleasant countenance,
and speaks little French. She will probably attempt to
pass herself for a free woman, and has frequently been seen on
board one of his Majesty’s ships at Port-Royal. This is cautioning
all persons from employing her, in any manner whatever,
as the penalties of the law will be enforced against them. A
reward of One Pistole is offered to any person who will bring
the above slave to her owner, in John’s Lane, or lodge her in
any workhouse; and a further reward of One Doubloon, on
proving to conviction by whom harboured.
