Memorandum concerning the case of the estate of John Hart v. John Norton & Sons, 1784 December 11

[Recto]

Jn^o: Hart was a Resident in Virginia,
where he died - how then cou'd
Miller the administrator there
bring a Suit against JN & C^o.
in the Federal Court -

M^r. Rob^t. White is of opinion that
there is a considerable defect in
the Writ [crossed out, illegible] by issued against
J: Norton & Sons for that Debt, &
that the Plaintiff cannot support
his Suit if JN & C: chuse to con=
=test it -

J: H: Norton has a Bail piece
ready for the within Suit -
