The Client will of course pay his. I asked him about France:
he sai telling him I had heard of it from Sam, & that I would be obliged
to him if he would execute a commission for me if he went.
he said he doubted whether he should, as his it would require
him to stay so long: if he did it would be in about a month.
The commission was to get me a pair of slippers like Sam's:
But I mentioned it rather as a pretext for interfering.
You may tell Guy I am thoroughly satisfied he has
not the least ground for apprehending that he will ever be
responsible - 1st because I see not the least ground for the
objection to the Marriage settlement, besides that there is
an opinion to the same effect from a council of the
very first eminence at the Bar: which certainly may overweight
the random notion of a country Attorney. 2dly
Because I am satisfied the Deed he knows of (I mean
that which you copied for me) will answer the purpose
at the long run if there was no mortgage prior to it: and
if there was, all the suits in the world he could bring against
W. would not enable him to do any thing to vacate it.
Mr Guy may therefore quiet himself: he is either safe already, or
nothing he can do will make him so. W. is preparing
under my directions the only conveyance that can add any
thing to the security Mr A. has already: It would be
to no purpose for me to attempt to explain it: as I could not under a
Sheet or two if then, make you sensible of the difference between
a title at in Law and a title in Equity. The conveyance
I mention will necessary take a week or two to compleat
it: but I see no reason to doubt but that W. will give
it all the dispatch it admitts of.
