Gertrude Reine Trepagnier seeks a separation of property from her husband. Gertrude represents that she intermarried with Laurent Trepagnier in 1803, bringing a dowry of two slaves, Françoise and her daughter, Manon, and $3,000 in cash. Since their marriage, Laurent has been "Growing poor & Contracting debts Either through misconduct or Bad management." Gertrude believes that her dowry property is now under threat from her husband's creditors. Therefore, she prays for a separation of property and asks that her husband be condemned to restore all of her dotal property to her.
