Benjamin Waller, Williamsburg to St. George Tucker, 1783 December 17
Scope and Contents
I received a letter concerning a debt due me for twenty years from William Broadnax. His nephew, William Broadnax took the estate at his death and he gave the bond in your possession. The debt was once under the care of Mr. Briggs. My son gave you a note of Mr. Yate's as security for Wilson, a barber who ran away and carried off a new wig of mine. My son says you doubted the note was of Mr. Yate's hand. When I refused to let Wilson have the tenement, he told me Mr. Yates the then usher of the College would be his security. When you receive the debts, I hope to hear from you.
