File 1264. - Bill In Chancery in an action between Thomas Watkins Davies and Frances his wife against William Vaughan re three terms ...,

Bill In Chancery in an action between Thomas Watkins Davies and Frances his wife against William Vaughan re three terms of years created in the marriage settlement of William Vaughan, the nephew of John Vaughan, in 1767, to raise £1,400, £700 and £4,000 for the provision of the younger children, which terms were conveyed to various trustees until at the present time all three terms are in the hands of John Turner, that Frances Davies (nee Vaughan) and William Vaughan, the defendant, were the only children of William Vaughan so that she is entitled, as the only younger child, to the three sums, but that William Vaughan and John Turner refuse to pay the same, sometimes pretending that no such indenture of settlement existed, sometimes admitting this to be so but insisting that, somehow, the three terms have long been discharged, that William Vaughan will sometimes admit this to be untrue, but will raise objections towards raising the three sums of money, and that John Turner alleges he cannot safely proceed to raise the same.
