Judge Duer has sent me word by my son that he has or will decide our cause in our favour. I wish you would inform Mr H[a]llenbeck of it & advise his son to come to Albany a week from to day when I will be home & when he can pay me the balance of my fee. My hand is yet lame from the bruise I received in pounding the truth into his honour & I know of nothing so likely to cure it as a fee.
