James Fagin, representing "that he is a free mullatto man over twenty one years of age commonly called a free negro, his father a whiteman and his mother a free mullatto," is "desirous of entering into the condition of slavery and further sheweth your Honor, that he has selected ... Ann Reese, ... a white person of good moral character and standing as his mistress or owner." Voluntarily and free from influence, Fagin attests that he "now really desires to surrender freedom and to become the slave of Ms Ann Reese aforesaid."
