MSS. In Misc. Coll. , Box 10, Negroes.
69 Ibid, and MS. Return of Directors of the Poor, Chester Co. , 1802. For an instance cf. Boucher, History of Westmoreland Co. , 325.
70 Cf. MS. Rec. Pa. Soc. Abol. SI. , I, 89; Commonwealth v. Vanlear, i Sergeant and Rawle, 248-253; Respublica v. Catharine Keppele, i Yeates 233-237, where it is laid down that while formerly the children of free negroes and mulattoes might be bound as servants, this was only under the sanction of a special statute (the act
... of 1725-1726, repealed in 1780), and that now no minor could be bound as a servant even by his parent. Cf. Commonwealth v. Baird, i Ashmead 267 : " In Pennsylvania, a par ent cannot make his child a servant "...
71 Cf. Moore and Jones's Traveller's Directory (1802), p. 9.
SERVITUDE AND APPRENTICESHIP 107 came so frequent that opportunities arose for abusing it. It began to be a regular practice for unscrupulous men, under pretext of relieving poor negroes of the burden of their children and of providing comfortable places for them, to induce these negroes to bind out their children for a term of years, often paying them a sum of money to further the transaction.
