- The estate of John Lesesne, of Daniel's Island. placed a runaway slave ad in the February 10, 1797 edition of The City Gazette seeking the return of Summer, age 22. There were multiple John Lesesnes living in the Charleston area in the latter part of the 18th century, so it is unclear which John Lesesne is being referred to in the ad.
