Alexander Jeffries, executor of the estate of John W. Tate, informs the court that "Said Testator left 26 negroes, mules, cattle, Hogs & farming utensils & growing crop" and that "said Testator was largely indebted & over ten thousand dollars of said Indebtedness is bearing 10 per cent Interest." Asserting "that it will be necessary for a sale of some of said negroes to pay debts," Jeffries "verily believes that all had best be sold as they are not of a character & description that would be profitable to keep."
Result: Granted.
Or you may view all people.
