And the aforesaid Jury hauing spent some tyme vpon the pemisses
brought in their Verdict in theis words following vizt
Wee finde that William Hughes first Commenced his Suite agt
Capt Stone (as upon Record) 12th February 1658 and came to a
tryall 2d March following where the said William Hughes was non
suited, After againe William Hughes began his Suite a new 3o Sep-
tember 1659 And at the Courte 7th October following a Respite was

granted in the said .... that said order wee finde in the Records.
But considering the deposicons and alsoe how that this Suite was
Comenced in Captaine Stones life tyme and that the said Capt Stone
engaged himselfe to sattisfye the said William Hughes for his labour
imployed vpon the Mill Wee conceive that the Executor ought to
sattisfye the said Hughes as the honoble Board shall adjudge, And
further that the said Executor ought not to pleade the Acte for
deceased psons whereas the Sayle was formerly putt in in Capt
Stones life tyme.
Whereupon the Courte required all papers and accompts Relateing
to the pemisses should be deliuered in to the Courte and peruseing the
said papers doth finde that the true Ballance of Acco is foure thou-
sand nine hundd fifty and one pounds of tobacco and Caske and doth
thereupon order that the said Thomas Stone deft and Executor doe
forthwith pay vnto the plt the aforesd sume of foure thousand nine
hundred fifty and one pounds of tob and Caske, in defaulte thereof
Execucon: with Costs of Suite.
