But it is stated in the answer, that she was under the necessity of selling this negro for the support of her family.\nAnd 1 am of opinion that a court of equity will validate a sale under such circumstances. A devise to her use, means to the use of herself and her children ; or in other words, for the support of herself and family : therefore I direct that one of the inquiries to be made by the jury shall be, whether or not this negro was sold for the necessary support of herself and children.\nThe enquiry was made and found by the jury in the affirmative ; and thereupon the court dismissed the bill as to the negro so sold, and her increase. ^uere de hoc.",
