A RUNAWAY. RUNAWAY from the subscriber on the 25th of June ist. SARAH ANN SHEA, a servant girl, about 17 years old; of a bold masculine appearance, light hair, rather large of her age, wore away a brown mantle trimmed with plush trimming, a green bonnet, and took with her many other articles of clothing besides her own; she was taken from the Boston alms-house. This is to forbid all persons harboring or trusting her on my account; so I shall pay no bills of her contracting. Ten cents reward is offered to any person who shall return her, but no charges paid. WHITING COOLEY. East-Windsor, June 27, 1823.
