Joseph D. Hopper, administrator of the estate of George H. Godfrey, deceased, requests permission to sell a nine-year-old slave named Wilson and to distribute the proceeds between Godfrey's nephew, George Godfrey, and his daughter, Susan Godfrey. In his will Godfrey had left the slave solely to his nephew, but when Susan was born after his death she was entitled by law to a one-half share.
Result: Granted.
Or you may view all people.
