RAN AWAY on the 15th of September last, my Negro man LANKTON, about thrity-two years of age, talks but indifferently, handsomely pitted with the small-pox, has his two fore teeth remarkable sharp, being filed in his youth to a point, his wool, the fore part, gray by sickness, walks very upright. --- Whoever will take up said Negro, and return him to the subscriber, shall have TEN DOLLARS reward, and all necessary charges paid, by JOHN BELDEN. Weathersfield, January 26, 1782.
