January 19, 1774:
Philadelphia, January 12, 1774.
My wife Anne Green, has made an Elopement from me ... John Green. She went away with a certain John Tuce, a Taylor by Trade, who left his wife in Philadelphia.
I am not related to this family, I am just passing on this information, which comes from a book titled "Runaway Women, Elopements And Other Miscreant Deeds, As Advertised In The Pennsylvania Gazette - 1728 -1789. (together with a few abused wives and unfortunate children)." Compiled by Judith Ann Highley Meier. Published by Closson Press. 1993. Page 68.
