The price for the land was set at eleven hundred dollars; McDonald valued Abram at six hundred dollars. Sarah Haney maintains that her husband "in his lifetime had been for a long time sick & debilitated so much so that his sickness had almost entirely destroyed his bodily & mental powers" and therefore was "utterly incapable & unfit to transact even common business." She asks the court to declare the sale null and void and order McDonald to return Abram.Diseases (mental)Diseases (physical)Title dispute (enslaved)Assessed Value (enslaved)
