David Hendrick, guardian of the minor heirs of Royland Maning, represents that there "has been a Manifest Injury sustained in the ordinary manner of hireing Slaves to the higest Bidder in as much as there is one Woman that Breeds and of Delicate habit & there is Two children of the ages of between four & Three & the other between one & two years old." Hendrick asks that he "be permitted to keep The slaves & account to the Court for their proper Value that he could render more Sevice to his wards & preserve Their property from Serious Injury."
