William Bryan, executor of the estate of the late Thomas Livingston, represents that the said testator "did in his last will leave to be Freed a molato Boy named Harris." The will further directed that Harris, upon arriving at the age of twenty-one, was "to be paid out of his Estate two Hundred Dollars to asist him in seting up in business." Bryan therefore prays that an act of emancipation be passed "to enable him to comply with the will of the said Thomas Livingston."
Result: Referred to judiciary committee.
