A printed runaway servant notice dated October 5, 1777, from Baltimore County, Maryland. William Goodwin offers a reward of forty dollars for the return of Samuel Phillips, an English indentured servant who is a weaver by trade. The notice describes his appearance and clothing (including a linsey under jacket and linen shirt), and records that he had previously escaped and set up weaving in Bush River Neck before being jailed at Harford.
