WHEREAS & certainyfifnlater/e fere;? Lf
Caroline county, hath charged me
with selling him & tract of land and not
complying with my bargain, and also
forewams all pc rsons smmss purchasing the
same, ] conclude it must certainly proceed
from a ccuisi'oriuus disposition, with a ma
lignant design in him, and some of his
friends, who are srsjudiced agaiulimc,
one of whom, I understand, is to be a
witness shrhjfu, and [fear will be deluded
and led into dangerous erroura. At the
time Yetcr was treating with me for the
land, I denied being under any obligation
at all, leltit might occasion disputes; but
if ] made him a deed the courttollowing,
it would cnnsil'm'a lurgain, otherwise
there was no compulsion. Particular;
would be too tedious m mentim here.
However, it was not put in (xeculion,
therefore concluded he did not incline to
bargain. ]n consequence of such trent
ment, I intend to demand iluissaction
when the court: osjuliice are npencd._
