On Easter Sunday being 3d april Miss was to go Out but her Mistress wd not Let her go in the Morning<lb></lb>
because her Child was ill but she shod go after Dinner and her Mistress ordered Dinner at one O'Clock<lb></lb>
that she might go the Sooner And after Dinner she went seemingly well pleased but she did not return<lb></lb>
again not did her Mistress hear any thing of her untill she received a Sumons to attend Justice Wright<lb></lb>
which greatly frightened her never having been before a magistrate & she was then near lying in however<lb></lb>
she Attended it & the Justice heard the Matter & declared he saw no Cause of Complaints discharged<lb></lb>
the Summons & the next Stop was the Application here</p>

Something in the Millinery way having been about 17 Months with Mrs Carey who does the best Work<lb></lb>
in the Millinery Branch Working for None but people of Quality & does not keep any shop Miss was<lb></lb>
going for 17 when she came to Mrs Carey & being so Old may have got Sufficient into the Business<lb></lb>
But its a hard Case on any Master or Mistress who shall take apprentices to keep them at Bed & board<lb></lb>
& teach & instruct them & when they become Capable of being of Service shall loose them as this Seems<lb></lb>
to be the Cave for Miss declared to a maid <rs type="occupation" id="LMSMPS50587_occ140">Servant</rs>

Mrs Carey is no ways desirouse of keeping Miss but hopes the Court will not Order any Money<lb></lb>
to be Returned as Miss has not Only been found in Board & Lodging for about 17 Months but<lb></lb>
Also in great part of her washing which Mrs Carey did not agree to do And as she has gone away witht:<lb></lb>
any Real Cause of Complaint at hereby Mrs Carey is to loose all the time that she Might be of benefit to<lb></lb>
her And her going away Obliged Mrs Carey to have a <rs type="occupation" id="LMSMPS50587_occ141">Journey woman</rs>
<interp inst="LMSMPS50587_occ141" type="occupation" value="Journey woman"></interp>
which she need not have done<lb></lb>
if Miss had not gone away The agreement was when Miss came that Mrs Carey was not to allow her<lb></lb>
Tea in the afternoon but in order to induce her to behave well Mrs Carey never Missed but one day while<lb></lb>
the was with her giving her Tea in the afternoon but instead of be having well she behavs'd very ill for she<lb></lb>
was<obscured></obscured>
tittle tittleing Mischief<obscured></obscured>
ing Girl as could come into to who use which was Seldom quiets<lb></lb>
while she was in it her Mistress cod not keep a Maid but a short time together on her Account this is the<lb></lb>
whole of the Case which must be Submitted to the Court And if the binding is Legal Mrs: Carey ought<lb></lb>
not to be deprived of the benefit of her apprentice (unless the Religion shall be thought a Reason) And<lb></lb>
upon the Case we apprehend Mrs Cary has the greatest reason to Complain</p>
