His is a Shoemaker by profession, about 32 years of age, dark complexion and wore away a snuff-colored surtout [overcoat], dark pantaloons and vest. He left 30 or 40 dollars' worth of new clothing, a balance of upwards to 20 dollars of wages and was free from debt. He was supposed to be deranged, which was probably the cause of his sudden and unaccountable departure. Any information of him communicated to this office will alleviate the suffering anxiety of his friends and subserve the cause of humanity. He was last heard of traveling in a southwestern direction and is probably in the western part of this State or Pennsylvania.
