Abstract
In 1843, trustees of the First Colored Independent Wesleyan Methodist Society of Baltimore issued two promissory notes to Henry Ridgeway to secure a debt of $2,930.12. As collateral for payment on the notes, the trustees conveyed to Ridgeway a "certain Leasehold estate lying in the city of Baltimore." The petitioner states that he has received no payments on the "principal debt" and interest is still accruing. He asks the court to subpoena the trustees and order them to satisfy the debt and requests "that the premises aforesaid, or so much thereof as may be necessary may be sold for payment of your Orator's claim."
Result: Withdrawn.
