To Thomas Stone, 17 Oct. 1786
Recipient
If it should be necessary for the Garnishees at the Suit of Foust & Stoddart to give Bail, Mr Thomas Bond will enter himself, and if thought insufficient will find other Bail. If it should be necessary to have the depositions of the Legatees taken, please enclose three seperate Commissions to me, I will give the proper Notices, and attend the taking of them. I imagine that Blank Commissions might be sent, and the Commissioners names inserted in Virginia, as I am not much acquainted with the most proper persons in the County where one of the Legatees resides.
