Alexander Hay, minister of Antrim Parish, and thirty other residents of Halifax County respond to the petition submitted by two hundred and sixty-seven other residents of the county asking the legislature to dispossess Hay of the property he holds as minister of Antrim Parish. Hay and his co-petitioners assert that Hay has every right to the "possession, use, and benefit" of the property, including his two slaves and their three children. They recommend that the petition calling for Hay to turn over the property be rejected.
Result: Reasonable, reported.
