Hannah Wells

Whereas my wife Hannah, on or about the middle of April last, eloped from my bed and board, without any reasonable cause or provocation, against my mind and will, and I still am ready and willing to receive her and live with her again. I do therefore forbid all persons harboring or trusting her, as I will pay no debts of her contracting after this date - and I do forbid all persons harbouring her on penalty of the law, in that case provided. Elihu Wells. Hebron, August 16, 1793.
