NEGRO CHARLES v. JOHN COCHRAN and RICHARD HODGSON.
Court of Common Pleas. New Castle.
May, 1796.
Rodney’s Notes.
George Read [for plaintiff],

Opinion:
John Watster. Robert Maxwell, in 1788, hired Charles of John Cochran, who lived on old Mr. Carnan's place. I always understood he got him of Jacob Ozier, near Drawyers. In February, 1793, Charles left me — I was Maxwell's overseer — and went to Richard Hodgson.
On motion, petitioner [granted] leave to withdraw his petition, not having evidence to support it.
