Yes to be sure — the old Lady could have a Bond-and-Judgment
which would secure her against every other demand
claim except there be any other Bond-and-Judgment
enter'd up as the phrase is, that is register'd in a certain
manner, previously to hers. But this will cost some money —
I will endeavour to learn what. She could have a Judgment
I have a notion on the note without the expense of a bond
which costs 5s or 6s. But a Bond may on some accounts
be more desirable. This I will enquire into. But in
this case there would be no getting possession of the goods without
what is called an Execution: which would make an
eclat & could not be managed without the intervention of the Sheerriff's
Officers &c. I have a notion they could be secur'd better
by a thing called a Bill of Sale, which would give her possession
of them immediately — All this I will enquire about.

I wish I could see the Marriage Settlement and the
Will — I might then be able perhaps to form some judgment
as to the validity of that part of the letter that is
to her prejudice.

well esteemed.

Certainly the Empress presents the fairest prospect— Only in
Poland there is the certainty of an introduction, & that an
advantageous one.

well. But it takes an extravagant deal of Wax.
