Joshua Alexander seeks to collect a debt on behalf of William and Elizabeth Shaffer, children of the late John Shaffer. Alexander is William's and Elizabeth's curator. In April 1811, John Shaffer's estate was sold at a public sale, at which time John Leggo purchased a slave named Esseck for the sum of $999, payable in three equal installments. Two-thirds of the purchase price is now past due. Alexander prays that both Leggo and John Arick, the man who pledged himself as security on the debt, be ordered to pay the debt with interest and costs of the suit.
Result: Granted.
