CHAPTER XLVII.

An Act to Enable Benjamin Blount, of Tyrrel County, Trustee to Thomas Bogg to 
Sue and Recover for and to the Use and Uses of the Children of the Said Thomas 
Bogg all Debts Due and Owing to the Said Thomas Bogg, and all Other Things in 
Action, Which the Said Thomas Bogg Might have Lawfully Sued for and Recovered.

I. Whereas Thomas Bogg making it a matter of conscience of taking the oath of 
allegiance to this State agreeable to an Act of Assembly made and provided for 
that purpose, did on the twenty-seventh day of September in the year of our 
Lord one thousand seven hundred and seventy seven, sell and dispose of all his 
estate both real and personal, agreeable to an Act of Assembly granting those 
persons who refused to take the oath aforesaid the liberty and privilege of 
disposing of their property: And whereas the said Thomas Bogg willing to make 
a necessary provision for his wife and children, did on the said twenty-
seventh of September, one thousand seven hundred and seventy-seven, transfer 
and set over unto Benjamin Blount, senior, of Tyrrel county, all the estate 
aforesaid by a deed of trust for the benefit and support of his wife and 
children: And whereas Hannah Bogg, the wife of the said Thomas Bogg is since 
dead, so that the children in some measure are left destitute, and several 
suits have been commenced against the estate of the said Thomas Bogg, which 
may tend to impoverish his children unless the said trustee should be 
impowered to sue in his own name for the debts and other things in action 
which were of the said Thomas Bogg.

II. Be it therefore Enacted by the General Assembly, and by the authority 
thereof, That it shall and may be lawful for the said Benjamin Blount, his 
executors and administrators, to institute a suit or suits in his or their own 
name or names as trustees of the same Thomas Bogg, against every person or 
persons indebted to or having any of the effects of said Thomas Bogg in 
possession, or having converted the same to his or their own use, and to 
obtain judgment against such person or persons for the use of the children of 
the said Thomas Bogg, in the same manner as he the said Thomas Bogg might have 
done previous to the revolution in government, on giving bond and security to 
the county court of Tyrrel in such sum as the justices shall require for the 
due and faithful application of such amounts as he shall recover to the bona 
fide creditors of the said Tho. Bogg, and the use and uses of his children and 
no others, any law or usage to the contrary notwithstanding.
