Z. Cosby seeks to collect a debt. Cosby represents that John Thompson purchased a slave named Reuben from George Gray in 1810. In order to pay the balance of the sum due, Thompson issued a promissory note to Gray for $600. Gray then passed the note to Cosby, directing that the debt be collected for his benefit. Cosby avers that the sum is now past due, yet Thompson has refused to pay it. Cosby prays that Thompson may be condemned to pay the debt with interest and costs of the suit.
Result: Granted.
