From John Marshall, 15 April 1822
Recipient
I received your letter this morning & immediately went to the chancery office & examined the papers in the case of Davenport v Thompson. The case is misstated in the report. The bill was filed by J.D. senr & J.D. jr & states that a certain D.D. mortgaged a tract of land to W. Thompson & discharged the whole amount of the mortgage money. That he afterwards conveyed the land with other tracts to Lewis & Ross to pay debts due to them respectively.
