Robert Treat Paine Papers, Volume 2
You may remember I sent about a Year since an Excn. of Hawxhurst vs Crandon & desired you to give it to some proper Officer to Serve which you told me sometime after you had done: but did not tell me who the officer was.1 He has never returned the Excn. so that I conclude he has got the money at least he has made himself liable for it. I shd. be much obliged to you to inquire into the Matter & know what is done & advise me & put the officer upon returning the Excn. & paying the money. Your Care herein will greatly Serve & oblige. Sr. Your very humble Servant
