Marronnage — Fugitive Slave Advertisements

RAN-AWAY, FROM the subscriber, the 17th November last, a NEGRO FELLOW, by the name of ABRAM [ARHAM], a carpenter by trade, about 35 or 36 years old, of a middle size, a little round shouldered; he can read and I believe write, a very artful fellow, may in all probability endeavor to pass for a free man; he has a wife at Mr. Thomas Wigfall’s, in St. Thomas’s parish, and perhaps may be lurking about that neighborhood or on Sullivan’s island, either working at his trade or turned fisherman.
