Spanish-Town, Nov. 5, 1801.
RAN AWAY, on Sunday the 25th October last, a Negro woman
named SALLY, at the same time she took away her child, about
17 months old; she is an Eboe negro, of a yellow complexion,
short stature, walks sometimes lame from the effects of crabyaws,
has a husband named Robert at Beckford’s Rock-River
in Clarendon, and may be harboured at Bodle’s Pen, Beckford’s
Red Ground, Two-Mile Wood, Dry Sugar Work, or any
other of Mr. Beckford’s properties; it is also likely she may
be skulking about Nova-Scotia, St. Mary’s, with a sister of
hers, belonging to the estate of the late William Burrows, deceased.
A reward of FIFTY POUNDS will be given on proving
to conviction by whom harboured, if by a white person, and
FIVE POUNDS if by a person of colour. A PISTOLE will be
given for lodging her in any gaol or workhouse in this island,
