Kingston, Dec. 27, 1805.
RAN AWAY, last night, from Drs. Carroll & Robinson’s Hospital,
where they were in confinement, two black pioneers,
named WASHINGTON and CHARLES. The former is stout
made, about five feet eleven inches high, marked on the right
shoulder PIO; he is a creole of Kingston, and formerly belonged to the late Mr. Gordon, Attorney at Law: Charles is marked
on both shoulders PIO, and is about five feet seven inches
high, is a creole of Spanish-Town, and was hired some time
ago to a brown man named Bird, who lives in Princess-Street,
in this city. Also deserted, from his Majesty’s 55th Regiment,
a black-pionner, named WILLIAM, who was left sick at the
northside when the regiment marched to Up-Park. Whoever
will give information respecting the above pioneer, or lodge
them in any gaol or workhouse, will be suitably rewarded.
