Ran Away FROM the Subscriber on Sunday morning last, an apprenticed BLACK BOY, named Isaac Gibson, between 16 & 17 years old; about five feet high, stout made, very black, dull eyes, speaks slow, and walks awkwardly; he is supposed to have gone to New-Haven, where he has a father. He wore away with him a striped round jacket, and trowsers of the same, and a new caster hat; he took with him a mixt jacket and trowsers, and sundry other clothes not recollected. Whoever will return said Boy, shall be suitably rewarded, with reasonable charges. All persons are forbid harboring or employing said Boy on penalty of the law. JAMES CASEY. Middletown, June 14, 1820.
