Petition #10383902

Abstract

John Green, "free negro," reveals that “he is confined in the public Gaol of Kent County, on execution process." Green laments that "he is entirely unable to pay his debts and has a family entirely dependent upon his exertions for support, which may become paupers on the County if his imprisonment be much longer procrastinated." He therefore prays that an act be passed "for his relief."
