|a After experiencing uncertainties as to the proper distribution of legacies under the will of Josiah Freeman, Jesse Knight, Freeman's administrator, was taken to court by Freeman's widow, his children and some of his grandchildren. The court ruled on the following legacies: that a net bequest of [dollars] 84 as the stated balance of a gross bequest of [dollars] 2,700 less [dollars] 2,676 stated to have been paid before the will was drawn up was obviously either itself a mistake or the result of a calculation based on a mistake, but as the court could not determine which then the explicit bequest of [dollars] 84 must be taken at face value and paid out; that a bequest of a slave, Franky, to Freeman's son-in-law did not include Franky's young child, since at the time of Freeman's death Franky and the child were two distinct subjects of property; that a direction that two other slaves, Big Sam and Isaac, be sold and the proceeds be equally divided among my legal heirs was to benefit all such heirs equally per capita, such that the children of a child of Freeman's who had predeceased him each received shares equal to those of Freeman's surviving children and not the share that would have been their dead parent's subdivided between themselves; and that the death, before Freeman's own death, of a legatee to whom the proceeds from a sale of certain property were to be lent during her lifetime ensured that these proceeds immediately devolved on her children, who were under the will to have been the ultimate beneficiaries of them after their mother's death if their mother had outlived Freeman.
