Run away, from Bryan Murry, of Reading Furnace, collier, a
Negro man, named Isaac, aged about 26 years, a squat well
set likely fellow, with crooked shins, talks good English,
and plays on the fiddle; the cloaths that he had on, are
unknown, but it is thought he has with him, a shaggy
portugal jacket, and leather jockey cap.  It is supposed he
is gone towards New-England, he having formerly liv'd there. 
Whoever takes up and secures the said Negroe-so that William
Branson in Philadelphia, or his said master, may have him
again, shall have forty shillings reward, reasonable
charges, paid by William Branson, or Bryan Murry.
