Transcription
Thomas Franklin left his entire estate to his wife Esther. Mr Witherington was supposed to be their attorney, but he was in Dublin when Franklin died. Stead took his place. He took great care to execute the will ‘to the best of [his] Skill’. There was some difficulty executing the will of Esther when she died. Mr Hitchins has been obstructing Stead’s duties. The case is explained in great detail. Stead’s wife Millicent was Thomas Franklin’s sister, as was Jane Darby, who asked Stead to be her attorney and executor. Stead is deaf and has sent his son to answer any questions. George Stead was an attorney, of Hammersmith.
