Marronnage — Fugitive Slave Advertisements

RAN AWAY, Since last April, a Negro Wench named FLORA, of small sta- ture, and about 45 or 50 years of age; from some injury in one of her feet, she at times limps, and has a contraction in one of her fingers, that it cannot easily be straightened. She passes herself as the property of Mrs. Ward, to whom she formerly belonged.
