Joseph Parsons states that he inherited three slaves from his mother, a resident of Maryland. He represents "that he has set free two of the above mentioned Slaves since he became entitled to them," but he is "desirous to bring the other, a boy about Ten years of age into this State and hold him as a Slave." Parsons prays that an act may be passed "authorizing him to bring the said boy named Thomas into this State and hold him as a Slave."
