    Case No. 5,878.
    GUSTY v. DIGGS.
    [2 Cranch. C. C. 210.) 
    
    Circuit Court, District of Columbia.
    June Term, 1820.
    Apprentice — Binding Out.
    An apprentice bound in Maryland, and brought into this district, may be discharged by the court, who will order him to be bound again by two justices of the pence, to a new master.
    A negro boy, about eight years old, was brought into court by habeas corpus, in the custody of Edward Diggs. It appeared that he had been brought into the city of Washington from Maryland, where he had been bound to Diggs to be taught the business of a farmer. Diggs hired him here to a chimney-sweeper.
