The Pennsylvania Gazette was one of the United States' most prominent newspapers from 1728 until 1800. Primarily a publication for classified ads, merchants and individuals listed notices of employment, lost and found goods and items for sale; the newspaper also reprinted foreign news. Most entries involved stories of travel. The gazette also published advertisements for runaway slaves and indentured servants. The writers promised to procure the best and earliest intelligence from all parts by reprinting information from all the noted public prints from Great Britain, new-England, new- York, Maryland and Jamaica.
