gence in a few days Mr.. Raven desired me to<lb></lb>
meet him in a day or two and he would<lb></lb>

that he wanted the Loan of £100 he said he did<lb></lb>
for that the County had called upon him hastily for<lb></lb>
a large sum of Money which he was not prepared<lb></lb>
to pay I told him the £100. was at his Service for<lb></lb>
a fortnight or a Month as I should not have<lb></lb>
occasion for it before that time I accordingly gave<lb></lb>
him a Check upon my Banker Biddulph and <lb></lb>

Bankers I took no Memorandum but did 3 or 4.<lb></lb>
Months after draw a Bill at 6 Weeks which was<lb></lb>
accepted by Aris I have not got the Check I drew for the<lb></lb>
£100. exactly and no Interest and I paid for Stamp<lb></lb>
I had applied for the Money, I applied at the end<lb></lb>

Aris said he could not pay it but if I would call on<lb></lb>
him at the Session House as I believe on Thursday<lb></lb>
he would pay it, Evans was in Custody I saw Mr..<lb></lb>
Aris at the Court on that Thursday, Mr.. Aris came<lb></lb>
out to speak to me Mr.. Aris said again he could<lb></lb>
not pay it, - I made many other Applications</p>
