WHEREAS William Cahall, of Caroline county, father of the herein after
named children
by his petition to this general assembly hath set forth, that he is advanced
to the age of fifty-nine
years, and his wife to the age of sixty-five; that they have had the misfortune
to have four
helpless children, neither of which have ever been able to dress or undress,
or even feed themselves,
being perfectly insane from their infancy; that the eldest is a male, by
the name of Solomon Cahall,
now thirty years of age, the two next eldest are females and twins, by
the names of Sarah Cahall
and Mary Cahall, now aged twenty-eight years, the fourth is also a female,
names Aimey Cahall,
now aged twenty-six years; that while himself and wife enjoyed youthful
health and strength, they
supported their unfortunate children by their labour and industry, but
being now grown old,
and their health and strength much impaired, they are not able to support
their helpless children as
heretofore, and having an aversion to putting their children into the poor-house,
on account of their
peculiar situation, where they would be deprived of the care and tenderness
of their father and mother,
be prayed an act might pass to provide for their future support out of
the poor-house, on account of their
facts stated in said petition being authenticated by the signature of a
number of respective inhabitants
of said county; therefore, |
