Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in two hands. The first section, apparently in Knox's hand, outlines the lines of ownership and inheritance related to Mrs. Hannah Flucker's estate: declares that upon the death of Mrs. Hannah Flucker (the mother of Lucy Knox), half of the estate went to the Captain Thomas Flucker (Lucy's brother) and his heirs, one quarter went to Mrs. Hannah Urquhart Harwood (Lucy's sister) and her heirs, and one quarter went to Lucy. The writer would like to know whether Mrs. Harwood and the heirs of Captain Flucker (who died in 1784) can claim their inheritance, since Harwood and Flucker left America and remained attached to the British government during the war. In the second portion, Parsons, a prominent jurist, provides his opinion that the inheritance belongs to Mrs. Lucy Knox, as her siblings became aliens when they left the country. Adds that the Supreme Court of Massachusetts has supported this opinion in the past.
