the said William his Promise and Assumption afs.d not in the least Regarding but
minding and fraudulently Intending him the said John in this part craftily and
subtilly to deceive and defraud the said William the said sum of six pounds Eighteen
shillings and Two pence half penny paper Currency or any part thereof to the said
John hath not paid altho so to do the said William by the said John hath been

the same but that unto him hither to to Pay or Content the said William hath
altogether refused and still doth Refuse to the Damage of him the said John
Smith Prather Thirteen Pounds sixteen shillings and five pence paper Currency
