Date: September 11 1746Newspaper published in: Philadelphia, PA
Philadelphia, September 11. 1746.
Run away from Thomas HOLMES, of Annapolis, on Sunday the 24th of August, a West Country servant man named William COX, a tall, lusty, well-set fellow, about 25 or 30 years of age; he has a long nose, eyes of a very light colour, little or no beard, and his hair cut off; is a Butcher by trade, but understands something of handling a trowel. Had on when he went away, a blue linnen frock, and oznabrigs trowsers; it is supposed he is gone with one DUNN, who came in a convict with him, but got his freedom by begging, and dresses gay.
Whoever secures the said servant, so as his Master may have him again, shall have five pounds reward, besides what the law allows, from Mr. John NELSON, in Philadelphia, or Mr. Peter ROBESON, at the Sign of the Indian King, in same place.
