Marronnage — Fugitive Slave Advertisements

Ran-Away, About ten days ago, a NEGRO WENCH, named SANITE, about seventeen years of age, brought up in St. Domingo, and speaks but little or no English; she had on when she went away, a blue negro cloth dress, and a red handkerchief on her neck, and one on her head; she is a plump looking Wench, has large eyes, thick lips, but on the whole likely: she is supposed to be harboured by a French sailor, who has arrived here lately, as she has been seen in company with him. A reward of Five Dollars will be given to whoever will secure her in the work-house, or deliver her to the subscriber.
