Mrs Wythe, Sir, informed me, that you civily wished me to send you my account of fees. In my book messrs. Rumbold Walker and Tabb stand charged with fees for prosecuting their suits against Scott, Smith, Daniel, Dandridge, M
cwilliams, Littlepage's executors, Bentley, and Wooodrow, and for defending them at the suit of A winston, amounting, with taxes for the writs in the first eight, to 2l6.0s.0d, and on your own account you stand charged with fees for prosecuting your suits against Minge, Lewis, Willis, and three petitions for lapsed land, and Elizabeth Walker's suit against Pleasants and Robertson, amounting, with taxes, to 2l0.1s0; and in the former credit is given for 7l.1s0, and in the other for the like sum, amounting together to 15l, received of you. Several of the suits, but which I do not recollect, were not finished, when I was taken from the bar; so that I am not intitled to, now rould I receive, the whole balance, altho I had almost as much trouble with them as if they had been finished; and I shall be content with half, or as much less as you think just, or even without any. I am,
- Sir,
- your obedient humble servant
- G. Wythe.
