William E. Bird seeks, guardian of the children of Horatio Boxly, prays for an order to sell some estate property to better provide for his wards, Thetis A., Caius M., Drusilla, George S., and Anna. Bird rented out the children's land and hired out their slaves. The land brought in only one hundred dollars a year, while the nineteen-year-old slave Major hired out for $125 and the sixty-year-old slave Lucy for $40 per annum. According to Bird, the profits were insufficient "for the maintenance and education of the said wards."
