- Mungo Harvey's Ad for Runaway Slave, in Virginia Gazette (Williamsburg, Virginia, United States)
5 Jul 1776.
LANCASTER, June 13, 1776. RUN away from the subscriber, on Monday the 10th instant (June) two men slaves, both Virginia born, viz. BILLY, a stout well made black fellow, about 5 feet 6 inches high, 25 years of age, who has been used to gardening, cooking, taking care of horses, and very handy, if he pleases, about any kind of house business. KITT, a stout mulatto fellow, much knock kneed, between 17 and 18 years of age, stammers a little in his speech, and is about 5 feet 9 inches high. Billy had on a leather cap, and both of them went off in their work clothes, of country cloth. I will give 40 s. reward to any person who will deliver the said negroes to me, or secure them so that I get them again. MUNGO HARVEY.

23 Jun 1775.
RUN away from the subscriber, ROBERT ROBINSON, a valuable joiner and carpenter, about 28 years of age, 5 feet 6 inches high, makes a good appearance both in person and in dress, wears his own dark coloured hair cut short before and behind, has a clean skin, and is of a thin make; had on, a fashionable good beaver hat, a fine cloth coat, of a parson's gray colour, with hair buttons, white Russia drill breeches, and a double breasted waistcoat of corded light jeans or fustian, light blue worsted stockings, single channel pumps not much wore, and wears in his sleeves either a pair of black or a pair of oval purple buttons set in yellow metal. He was born in the south of Scotland, worked long in the city of Edinburgh, and in the town of Kelso upon Tweed, and also undertook and built a church at Inverness, in the north of Scotland. The said servant was purchased three weeks ago at Monday point, on Potowmack, from on board the Friendship, Capt. Park, from Glasgow. He speaks broad, writes a good hand, and may probably make himself out a pass. All masters of vessels are cautioned against receiving him, and I will give 3 l. to any person that will deliver him to me, in Lancaster county, besides what the law allows. MUNGO HARVEY.
