Mr Francis Willis Junior had every account Colonol
Charles Carter gave me relating to that trust
estate, & upon returning the same observed
I had many creditors to satisfy, & cen
sured the trustees management in that matter

The agreement that is also mentioned, that
was entered into between colonel Charles Carter &
me, some time in february: 1749 upon delievering
up the said trust estate, I believe does not
exist for no impression off the same is to
be found in me. I believe, Sir, by this time
you understand Mr & Mrs Willis's claim in
the bills; the subject thus far. A few days
after the receipt of your letter of the 24th of December last
I was again with Mr Waller, he spoke then of a
letter just receieved from Mr Francis Willis wrote
only a day or two ago, making one
more claim in behalf of his wife. Viz:
a third part of two thirds of the appraised
value
