Abstract:
Samuel Cherry, John Smith, Matthew Luter, Charles Waldron and Luke Osborne, prisoners in jail at New Bern, were charged with assaulting John Worsley. They petition the General Assembly to be set free saying it was John Worsley, and his followers, who have plundered their neighborhood and Worsley, who appears to be beyond the Law, has brought down the resentment of the neighborhood to defend themselves and reduced to desperation to punish the villians. These five men say they are only five that Worsley picked out of 200 that attacked him. They say that imprisonment is a cruelty, that they are poor and the fines are too heavy.
