Marie Victoire Nicolas, a free woman of color, presents to the police jury that she wishes to free her thirty-seven-year-old daughter named Judick or Judith, whom she purchased from Mr. And Mrs. Grymes under the condition of emancipation. She declares that Judick has always behaved well, has given Mr. and Mrs. Grymes long and faithful services ["de longs et fidèles services"], and that she is capable of earning a living. She has come to the police jury with the hope ["c'est avec l'espoir"] that they will authorize her to free her daughter, whom she purchased specifically for that purpose, without compelling her to leave the state [Original in French].
Result: Granted.
