Eight Dollars reward.  Ran away from the subscriber living
in York County, Hopewell Township, an English servant man,
of the name of George Otley, about 6 feet high, with long
black hair tied behind; had on when he went away, a home
made kersey jacket, the backs not just the same, with metal
buttons, a striped linen shirt, and trousers, a pair of old
ribb'd stockings homespun worsted, a pair of new pumps, with
carved pinchbeck buckles, he is long visaged, and pock-
marked in the face, very talkative, and a good scholar, was
keeping school when he went away; he understands book-
keeping very well; he took with him a fine shirt; he sings a
song very well. . . [3 lines on reward terms, signed] David
