M. WILLIAM ARUNDEL, Plaintiff, vs. LOUIS COSTE, Defendant.


The plaintiff demands of the defendant the delivery of six thousand pounds of flour, which he owes him according to his matured notes, and for which the plaintiff cannot wait longer because of his journey to Michillimakinac; and prays that the defendant be condemned to the costs.


Heard the defendant who said that he acknowledged his notes and that he owed the said quantity of flour, and said for defence that he offered to pay, but that he needed some days delay in order to have his wheat thrashed and ground, and to make those pay who owed him, and that he prayed for a sufficient delay; that, at the end of the time which M. Arundel and the Court could grant him, he promised to pay in full.


The Court having seen the matured notes of the said Coste and the crops, the harvesting of which has just been finished, with the consent of the said M. Arundel, granted the said Coste the balance of this present month of August to pay the six thousand pounds of flour to the said M. Arundel and no longer; in default of which after the said time is passed, we condemn him to pay without delay, to do which he shall be constrained by seizure and sale of goods. We condemn him to pay the costs and charges.


M. Gratiot, merchant from the Spanish bank, intervened for Madame Groot, widow, and prayed that there be stayed all suits and that there should not be given any seizures nor rendered any judgments against the estate of the said deceased Groot, her husband, until she has informed herself of the assets of the said estate and of the goods thereof in order to be in a position to pay each creditor, if the estate sufficed.


Whereupon the Court granted M. Gratiot for the said widow from now to the month of November next and no longer in order to obtain the requisite knowledge; and the said Court reserves to itself the right and privilege to attach and seize the said goods

Ant. Girardin.


In regard to the dispute between Pierre Troge and James Piggott over a little girl confided by Madame Piggott to Madame Troge and whom the said woman Piggott reclaims, the Court decided that Madame Troge shall return the child to the woman Piggott, her mother, under the condition that Piggott or his wife shall pay Madame Troge for the board, maintenance, care and trouble, which she has given, since she has had her and from the day that the said Piggott confided her to her care, according to the account, which the said Troge or his wife shall bring and which shall be estimated by two arbitrators who shall name a third in case of disagreement between them; and the balance of the account shall be paid in cash to the said Troge by the said Pig- gott and his wife before taking the child away.

1 The words " Ledt Sr dumoulin Etant pr saisissant" were inserted in the margin. The asterisk, which marks the place for insertion, was placed after " Sr " and before "La Coste," below. Since the expression is without meaning in that place, I have inserted it here. In both cases the place of insertion falls at the beginning of the line in the manuscript, so that this mistake could easily have been made.

COURT RECORD, SEPTEMBER, 1789


At the same Court.


M. DUMOULIN, Plaintiff, vs. PIERRE LACOSTE, Defendant.


M. Dumoulin brought an account due him by Pierre LaCoste for the sum of two thousand and eleven livres twelve sols six deniers according to his notes and accounts; which notes the said LaCoste recognized as true, and he brought an account, which he claims from M. Dumoulin. The Court decrees that the notes and accounts exhibited by M. Dumoulin, in which is included the costs of the effects which he sent to seek at the Illinois River, shall be paid by preference, since the said M. Dumoulin is first judg- ment creditor,1 out of the peltries, sugar and other effects brought down, with the costs of the present suit and of others which shall be made in the matter; and as to the account exhibited by M. La- Coste the Court decrees that the canoe mentioned therein shall be paid for by M. Dumoulin with the other articles, all on the report of arbitrators and appraisers. The Court decrees, furthermore, that the peltries brought down shall be delivered to M. Dumoulin on that which is due him; and if it is not sufficient, the sugar shall be sold to-morrow for cash to the highest bidder up to the equivalent of the said sum and costs; and if there is a surplus, it shall be deposited at this office to be remitted to his other creditors. And there has been deducted by these presents, after examination was made of the account exhibited by the said LaCoste, the sum of eighty-five livres, as the amount of the said account and the value of the canoe and medicine; therefore there is due to the said M. Dumoulin nineteen hundred and twenty-six livres twelve sols six deniers, which does not include the costs of justice.


At the same Court.


M. CLAMORGAN, Plaintiff, vs. PIERRE LACOSTE, Defendant.


The plaintiff demands of the defendant the payment of two notes, one for the sum of fifteen thousand nine hundred and forty- seven livres fourteen sols in money according to his obligation under date of November 30, 1787, drawn up at the record-office of St. Louis, from which it appears that the said LaCoste should pay at Michillimakinac for the release from M. Clarmorgan a sum of nine thousand livres in money; and since he has not satis-

COURT RECORD, OCTOBER, 1789


fied this, the Court condemns the said LaCoste to pay his obli- gation in full with interest and costs. The Court condemns the said LaCoste likewise to pay his other note amounting to the sum of seven hundred and eighty-three livres eighteen sols, as is entered at the foot of an account, with interest and costs; all decreed after the said LaCoste recognized his said notes and accounts. Consequently the Court permits M. Clamorgan to have seized the effects, which he can find, belonging to the said Coste with the reservation of those already seized and sequestered, for which there will be execution.

The defendant recognized his account and said that there was due him pay for seven guards and that he had been employed by order of M. Trottier for the affair of Brisson and he demands that this sum amounting to 35 livres be deducted from his account.


Whereupon the Court condemns the defendant to pay his account to M. Trottier saving his recourse for his guards as it is decided by the verdict of the jurors concerning the affair of Brisson. Condemned Pierre Lafleur to pay the costs which are
