The motion for a new trial was determined finally in our
favour on Friday — We came off with flying colours — Wilson I
understand spoke very well better than either of his leaders — he
got many compliments from the Bar. Ld M. pronounc'd my
elogium — said that I had acted like a man of honour in the
affair — wonder'd that the Baron's report should not have been
more favourable.
Burgrove & Forster will be it is computed about £20
out of pocket by this motion alone — about 130£ in the whole if
they stop here. The misfortune is they seem bent upon taking out
a Commission of Bankruptcy against W. without any chance of mending
that I can see — They are quite beside themselves with
vexation and revenge. They may still keep Mrs A. out of the money
till June or July if they bring a Writ of Error in which
they will not have a possibility of succeeding; so that
merely to make her lose the interest of £160 for 6 months they
must fling away £20 or 30 - perhaps more. While the Whether they intend to take
this foolish step we shall know by Monday or Tuesday.
Watts of Lewes called on me today with his Bill for what he did with
relation to the sale of the House — It comes to £17 or 18. of which
Mrs A. will be to pay half. I sent him with it to Mr Browne.
I shall direct this to Mr D. least you should be on the
road in your way to London.
Love & occrements & so forth distribute as you like
