Item Details
Description
[SLAVERY & ABOLITION].   Partially printed writ of detention related to the surrender of the enslaved woman "Lucy" and the enslaved girl "Nancy." Orange County, NC, 1813.

2pp, 6 ½ x 7 ¾ in. (toning, creases at folds, chipping on edge line). Docketed on verso.

War of 1812-era writ of detention whereby Court Clerk John Taylor orders the sheriff to convey Coonrod Long to appear before the Court of Pleas and Quarter-Sessions on 4 November 1813 to: "...then and there answer Alexander Mebane of a plea that he render to him one negro woman named Lucy of the Value of two hundred pounds and one negro Girl named of Nancy of the Value of two hundred pounds which he unjustly detains from said Alexander [sic] to his damage of five hundred pounds." Signed by Taylor. Docketing on the verso appears to add the signature of "Thos. Whitehad D.S." [Deputy Sheriff], who executed the writ.
