The Partriot 1830
Sat. Jan. 13, 1830
RAN AWAY! MY HUSBAND!
-- From his own premises, on the 15th ult., my husband, JAMES MILLIS, without 
any provocation on my part. He was so involved in debt, that every item of 
property left by his is under execution and will shortly be sold. He has left 
the subscriber with two helpless children, one aged three, and the other two 
years, whose doom, without assistance may be starvation or the poor house.
  It has been quite common for husbands to advertise their wives, when they 
prudently resolve to better their condition by changing their residence, and 
wives are certainly justifiable in adopting the same course upon the principal 
of self-defense.
  This is to inform the said JAMES MILLIS that if he will send back her 
proportion of money to assist in raising his children he has left on my hands, 
his absence will not be regretted.
Guilford, N. C., Jan. 6, 1830         ANNA MILLIS
