Transcript	RAN AWAY. A Mulatto Boy-- About seveenteen[sic] years old, five feet six or seven inches high, stout made, with a large scar over his left eye, having some time ago run away from the subscriber, living near the Neuse in Wake county, and been imprisoned in several goals, last in that of Washington, from whence he was returning in the custody of an overseer, again made his escape five weeks ago. He will, no doubt, endeavour to pass for a free man. Whoever will bring the said boy to his master, or lodge him in any goal, giving notice thereof so that he may be had again, shall be handsomely rewarded. SAMUEL ALSTON. Oct. 17.
