Letter 4481

Honred Sir. I read your kind letter concerning Mrs Ballard affairs for which I am much obliged to you I have filed a bill in chancers in her behalf against Gotterdale’s Estate which is now in ye possession of one Mr Worthington in Ireland, in order to make them acct to her for ye 500d he recieved for her, it will be a matter of great difficulty after so long a time to settle an acct of that nature which the people concerned against her are entirely ignorant of, or even that she had so much as a demand upon them, but her demand is very clear whether there will be assets of old Mr Gotterdale chargeable with this debt & the making up the acct will be the fine, the first I shall make appear I believe, in the last Mrs Ballard herself must give all the information she can as to what she had read for she may expect a cross bile of discovery to make her answer as I have informed her already I have by me a testimonial under your hand of what has been paid her, but that cannot be read as evidence we have been for mine smoutty under matial & which has sent after to all proceedings in ye court or I had been able to have given you a more satisfactory acct. I am very glad to hear by many from London that you continue in a good state of health, & flatter myself that one day I shall have ye pleasure of seeing you again, than which nothing could be a greater satisfaction to Honred Sr your most dutifull Grandson & most obliged humble Ser.t Rose Fuller Spa Town June 2d 1735 I take ye liberty to inclose a letter for Mrs. Rose
