A MEETING of all the bona Mr Creditors of the
late John Rounds is requested at the counting
room of the undersigned, ou Saturday, the 28th day
of March next, at 2 I* M . to take into consideration
the manner the estate was settled, or pretendril to be
settled Sewell C. Strout (Howard k Strout) "ai
CO UN • EL FOR TH ■ ADMINISTRATRIX," (mark the
words) according to his own accouut. has had ail the
claims against the estate, except mine, and one at
Mew York hr could not ftnd, assigned to himself
for 20 per cent , which was all the estate /**»</, as he
has repeatedly stated. 1 declined the generous ofer,
and after years of delay, finding that uo better settle
ment could be effected, directed rav attorney to cite
the administratrix luto Court, and give Strout due
notice thereof. It was then, and not until then, that
St rout, like a skillful General, suddenly changed his
tactics. He requested that nothiug further be done
for the present, but to "see Chase and ascertain the
very lowest he will take," which was "neck or
nothing." The money was forthcoming to the tuue
of lOO per cent. I'he problem I wish to solve is, how
much did the estate fairly pav? How much did all
the claims against the estate (except mine and the
one at New York he "could not And) cost him(Strout)
in the aggregate? and how much the administratrix
got ? She says that Strout told her he ha given her
AXL HE COULD AFFORD TO, A VERY INDEFINITE
SUM. I found the claim at New York, an old, estab
lished and highly respectable house. I also found
that previous to his settling my claim, he (Strout)had
been in communication with tnat very house, and
had offered tht-rn the stereotyped edition oI 20 per
cent, which they refused I 'advised them to "stir
him »tp" forthwith. Out of quite “a batch" of long
winded yarns from Strout in reply, I here qnote on
ly from that under date of March 81. 18«2. "The
dividend upon the claims against the estate of John
Rounds i*2fc) per ?ent ” The dividends have all been
paid ont except your*, a long time since, and I had
forgotten about your claim.
