RANAWAY from the subscriber on the 14th June, a bright MULATTO GIRL, about 23 or 24 years of age, likely and well dressed.--Her mistress thinks she usually wore a gentleman's gold shirt button in her bosom, and had a portmanteau or travelling bag, her front teeth are large and prominent and are separated, long straight black hair, and had a number of warts on her hands. Her object I presume is to go North. She was seen to take the Southern train at Belfield, a few days after she left home, but this probably was a ruse, and may turn back, as she must I think be trying to get to a free state. I am not aware of any good cause for her leaving, save the love of liberty. There are no marks remembered, as she has never been whipped in her life that I know of. She called herself at Belfield, Martha Payn, and said she was free, and may have a pass of some sort. Her proper name is ELIZABETH, and sometimes calls herself Elizabeth Scott. Some of her clothes are probably marked with the letters E. S.
I will pay $50 to any person who will confine her in Jail so that I get her again.
