Pat was born in South-Carolina, and speaks bad Englilh, with the negro dialeiX. She has on the upper part of her breafl, two pretty large lumps of flefli resembling Weis, or rather with the appearance of the marks of 1 burn. She carried away with her several changesof cloathj, and gowns of white muslin, and of coloured and figured printed cottons fafhionably made up. She also carried away with her, I CLARA her daughter—a very float, robust, 1 flrong made of a short stature, and round { Ihouldered—appearing t« ba about 14 years of age v Clara has large flaring eytf, a flat nose, an 1 eval flat face, her under jaw projefiing a little, ' and good teeth.

Amelia is a very complete, well inftrufled la dies maid,'much below the common stature an 1 of a small make—her complexion is that of t dark mulatto or meflizoe, nearly refetnbling that of the Lascars of India, with black curling hair, and a very low forehead—her right eye has a great weakness, owing to the small pnx inkier infancy— under her «ye» very black—a flat face, flat broad nose, with scarce any riling at the bridge; a large mouth, with thick lips, and good flrong teeth.
