The manumission index records Alida Philippina, formerly Alyda Philippina, as freed on 19 July 1862. Born in 1792, she was about seventy. The archive says W. Huisen requested her freedom and was obliged to ensure she would not become a charge on the state. The condition shows how colonial authorities framed freedom through public-cost concerns rather than repair for a lifetime in slavery.
