No- thing has tended so much to cause and prolong the confusion of these affairs, as leaving out of view claims which ought to be paid, and are certain to he made,''^ The Same to the Same.
" 17th October 1814.
** Dear John, ** I received your letter with the astonishing news of James's utter disregard to his own credit. He promised to let me have accounts of his prospects, and consult me upon the management of his cash affairs, but he has kept his word but lamely. He is even worse than you, for
... you generally give a day or two's notice at least of the chance of dishonour, and this poinding* is little better.
