10. A statement shows the proceeds of the hire of slaves and the rent of land belonging to the orphans of Abraham for the year 1858. It included the hire of boy Moses to Abraham Stephenson, presumably Etheldred J. Abraham, son of Jesse, for $100; and rent for land belonging to Arthur including the Barnes house and gardens and the Manley house and gardens, and land belonging to Cordelia including the Robin field. A similar statement for 1859 shows Moses again hired to Abraham for $100; and the rent for land belonging to Jesse consisting of the fresh field, and for the Barnes and Manley fields to Arthur, and the Robin field belonging to Cordelia.
