|a Sarah Gordon, slave-owner, had several grandchildren by two sons who had died. One grandchild, Nathaniel Gordon, was of age; the others were infants and were looked after by Hamilton Brown, their stepfather and guardian. To provide for her family, she determined to give her infant grandchildren the use of her slave Jim during her lifetime and the remainder in him after her death, and to give Nathaniel another slave, Harriett. A deed was made between Sarah, Nathaniel and Brown, with a [dollars] 1,000 penalty provided for, regarding the sale of the slaves, and also taking into account a [dollars] 550 debt owed by Nathaniel Gordon's deceased father to a man for whom Brown was agent. After Sarah Gordon's death, Nathaniel filed this bill against Brown praying that the slaves be delivered to him or their value accounted for, the bill stating that Brown had since sold them for [dollars] 637 and [dollars] 1,000. The defendant, Brown, maintained Sarah Gordon's right to sell the slaves if she so wished. The Supreme Court determined that there was no evidence that Sarah Brown had agreed to the sales of the slaves, and therefore that the plaintiff was entitled to [dollars] 637 for Jim and an assessment of the value of Harriett, and any offspring she might have, with a view to receiving this sum for her.
