Title2nd letter - MR to William Longsdon at Smithers after seeing brother's will
Date2 Aug 1827
DescriptionConcerning question whether William and sister have abandoned part of legacies under father's will - depends on whether brother gave consideration or inducement or if there was deficiency of assets - otherwise not precluded from insisting on full amount. Insufficient witnesses to codicil to charge real property with extra legacies - so unless sufficient personalty William has no remedy but don't notice or allude to this. Will of William's brother cannot affect his right as executor of his father.
