RANAWAY, On Friday the 12th inst. a middle aged Wench, named DA- PHNE, (but more generally known by the name of Daphne Wragg, having been raised in that family, and some time since sold by that estate,) about 5 feet 6 or 7 inches high, light com- plexion; her dress cannot now be described, as she has a variety of cloathing, among which, two suits of homespun; being very artful and plausible, will no doubt use means to get concealed on some plantation in the neighborhood of (or in) Georgetown, in the vicinity of Charleston, Christ Church Parish, or some adjoining parish, having a number of relations and acquain- tances in and about each place; she is well known, particularly about the forks of the roads, having lived some time on Mrs. Codnington’s plantation, from whom she was purchased about a twelvemonth back.
