Newspaper published in: Philadelphia, PA

Run away from the subscriber, living in Queen Ann's county, near Queen's town, on the 30th of May last, an Irish servant man, named William LOADSMAN, a Joiner by trade, he is a lusty well set man, about 6 foot high, has a scar on the left side of his nose, which comes through his nostril, and in that place is heal'd up in a little notch, is round shoulder'd; had on when he went away, a brown colour'd drugget coat and breeches, a new figur'd fustian jacket, a new castor had, a pair of grey worsted stockings and half worn shoes; he took with him two white shirts, one check linnen and the other ozenbrigs, a pair of leather and a pair of ticking breeches, and a blue jacket such as sailors wear, and also a pair of wide trowsers, and wears a cap. It is likely he calls himself Gerrard MITCHELL. Whoever takes up said servant and brings him to his Master, or secures him so that he may be had again, shall have four pounds reward more than the law allows, and reasonable charges, paid by Tobias GRISCOM.
