RANAWAY from the subscriber living in Allen-town, Monmouth county, on the 3d of January, 1802, a BLACK MAN named Limus; he is very black, about five feet, nine or ten inches high, slender, and very straight; bold spoken; had on, when he went away, a beaver hat two thirds worn, red sailor jacket, striped swansdown waistcoat, purple linsey trousers not fulled -- took with him a nankeen sailor jacket edged with red. Whoever will secure the said Negro, so that his master may get him again, shall receive the above reward and reasonable charges.
