Later, Simons, with Henrietta's consent, traded the slave for two other slaves, Let and her son, Washington.  Henrietta has now married John Raiden, and they have asked Simons to give them the slaves and any money earned by their hire.  Simons refused.  The Raidens seek possession of Let, Washington and Let's second child, Martha.</abstract><subjects><subject>Jails/Workhouses</subject><subject>Hiring value (enslaved)</subject><subject>Title dispute (enslaved)</subject><subject>Assessed Value (enslaved)</subject><subject>Swapping (enslaved)</subject><subject>Enslaver (minors)</subject></subjects></petition>
