AUGUSTA COUNTY, VIRGINIA - CHALKLEY'S CHRONICLES of THE SCOTCH IRISH IN VIRGINIA
OCTOBER, 1765 (D).
John Hopes (Hapes) vs. Daniel Harrison.--Chancery. Spa. issued
September, 1763. Bill states that orator was some years ago employed as
Deputy Sheriff under Robert McClenachan, and continued so for two years.
Thomas Harrison, Daniel Harrison and John Cravens were his securities.
As the end of orator's term drew near he became fearful that he would be
behind in his accounts, and withdrew himself to Carolina, leaving his
Sheriff's books and effects for the satisfaction of his bondsmen. His effects
were immediately attached by Daniel Harrison, who was appointed Deputy
Sheriff in orator's place. After some time orator returned to Virginia and
sold a tract of land for £47, which he paid to his securities, expecting to
have an account rendered to him by defendant, but orator waited a long time
for an accounting, and then applied for one, but has never gotten one yet.
Prayer for acconuting.
Daniel Harrison's answer states that: Claims that orator is still in his
debt. Account follows: Downes's fees--William Carrel, David Johnson, James
Scott, John Dunbar, William Longin, Mathy Thomas, John Griffeth, John
Megil. Adam Bracen Righ's book (boock)--Alen Sculps, Alen Jackson.
