Mary Ann Truman's estate, held in trust for her four daughters, includes four slaves and a house and lot in Louisville, and is valued at $5000. [A court record reveals the county sheriff was ordered "to take charge of & manage" said estate, since no person qualified as executor of said will.] The petitioner recounts that said sheriff "has had some trouble in Controling the slaves and that one of them has escaped from this state and is not likely to be regained, altho great efforts have been used he has not been heard of and it is feared he is lost to the estate." Cambron asks that a new trustee be appointed to take charge of said trust estate.
Result: Granted.
