Hon. N S Brown
Sir, I have this day settled with William Honeycut in relation to the Crofford claim from Louisiana I find the amount in his hands as the advocate of Robert Honeycut after paying debts &c was in December 1841- $2277.61. James Honeycut was entitled to our 8th of this amount which is $284.70, I could not compell [sic] him to pay interest. He filed his answer asserting he has at all times been ready to pay to the said James, or his legal representative when called on, his father says, he has not used the money in any way under these state of facts. I could not comp-ell [sic] him to pay in trust. How is Mr & Mrs Crofford to get the money, give me their address, and I will write to them, I have no news of importance, Eldridge, Davis Walker, Williamson, Schoggers, and [Millfross?] have appointments to address the people in evry [sic] part of Giles County within the next two days - I am staying at home, as I tell them for the purpose of keeping the [?] from taking the Town,
, Yours &c A.R. Richardson
