Lewis Burnes, Guardian of infant heirs of Abner Bozarth, states that slave Dicey was given to his wife by Abner Bozarth to be held and used. Dicey is valued at $400.00. Burnes proposes to withhold Dicey from the Probate Court's confirmation of the Final Settlement report or be allowed to pay $400.00. Also unsettled was the ownership of Dicey's 2 slave children. Edward F. Pence and Burnes reach agreement where Pence releases all claims to "...the slaves Henrietta and Howard, children of Dicey."
