In hand of the above deduct
Mortgage to Mr.Passingham £3,000.0.0
Of the £3,109.0.0 say that Mr.Graham’s part of that India Stock being 1,000 Ind. produced by this calculation about £1,000
(total) £4,800.0.0
Remains unaccounted for – £8,800.0.0
The Trustees being empowered to advance £3,000 by the original Settlement may fairly be deducted from this responsibility – £3,000.0.0
(total) £5,000.0.0
The Chaily Estate mortgage to Mr.Verrall for £1,000.0.0
Ditto – ditto – to Messrs Marsh & Co. £6,000.0.0
the (Chailys Estate) bought of Mr.Cripps ditto to Trustees – £900
(total) £7,900
Whatever therefore Chaily should sell for more than this £7,900 will go to the liquidation of the £5,800, but should the (said?) Estates not even fetch more than the £7,900, the Trustees in themselves would yet be indemnified as certainly not accountable for monies that never came within their Trust, but the culpability can alone rest with Mr.Graham, as from this £5,800 it will be observed as above that Mr.Graham’s accession of Fortune was £5,600.
