WHEREAS Elizabeth Barnet, of Washington county,
by her petition

with nine children, and without the means of support, except from
her personal labour, which is arduous and hard, and withal inadequate
to the demands of her family, and in addition to her poverty,

her daughters, who are twins, about fifteen years of age, are
idiots, and have been so from their infancy, by which misfortune
they are debarred from obtaining a livelihood, and must either perish
by famine or repair to the poor's house of said county, where
their afflictions and infirmities would be deprived of the attention
of a parent, which their unhappy situation requires, and praying
that the levy court of Washington county may levy a small sum
of money to assist her labours in the support of her numerous family;
and the prayer thereof appearing reasonable, therefore, |
