Elizabeth Miller, the widow of Andrew Miller, laments that she "had the misfortune to lose her husband ... and to be left with a very numerous Family of children in a condition embarrassing and distressing to the greatest degree." Noting that her late husband was "one of the Persons whose Estate has been confiscated by an act of the General Assembly," the petitioner prays that said General Assembly "will have the goodness to restore to her such part of the property of her late Husband in this State as hath not been already disposed of." Several tracts of land and five slaves once belonging to Andrew Miller and Company have already been sold.
