Abraham Reese Jr. states that his father, Abraham Reese Sr., sold him a slave named Charity in 1803. Now, Charity has had six children and Reese Sr. has passed away. The petitioner believes that Reese's widow, Hannah, and two other heirs plan on hiding the slaves so that he cannot gain custody. Reese Jr. asks the court to issue an injunction preventing the defendants from removing the slaves from the court's jurisdiction.
