During the January 1793 court session in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, Thomas Ferguson made an oath and stated he was appointed guardian of Elijah, James, William & John Miller orphans of William Miller decd. That he this deponent called on James Bruster, administrator of said William Miller decd. for a settlement of the estate which was accordingly settled before the court. The sum due was ascertained and James Bruster gave three separate notes in 18 pounds each payable at a future date. After collecting the sum of the first note the deponent bought separate tracts by warrants on the other two notes and had judgement before William Wilson Esq., from which judgement said Bruster appealed and suggested that the first settlement was erroneous. The court appointed four justices to examine if any errors had occurred and to report back to the court. The justices appointed did not meet to examine before July and made no report; non-suits were recorded on the appeal, as the deponent was advised by the sheriff and an execution was issued for both.

On the same day, Robert Irwin Esqr. also made an oath and testified much of the same information.

NOTE: It must be noted that there was 1 spinning machine worth $75, along with a loom and 2 spinning wheels. The spinning machine was a massive investment, indicating Elijah Miller was producing a lot of yarn; this also aligns with the 15 head of sheep and sheep shears. The loom indicates Elijah Miller was also weaving textile products. Most families during this time period either had no sheep or kept just a few for basic wool and meat needs; 15 sheep, however, indicates this was more about production and profit rather than necessity. It's very likely Elijah Miller was taught weaving in his early life.
