Richard Franklin, administrator of the estate of the late William Franklin, seeks permission to sell a slave named Mary for the "purpose of enabling him to make a division" of Franklin's estate between his two heirs. He deems it "impracticable" to make an equal division between Franklin's widow, Nancy, and his son, Gallant, without a sale.
Result: Granted.
Or you may view all people.
