Relates the opinion of the British Lord Chancellor on a legal case. Apparently, the Lord Chancellor will grant a perpetual injunction against any suit brought to court in England against an American whose estate was confiscated to pay his debts. Notes this policy "might effect some of [Knox's] claims." Written at Delaware Works, located in what is now Morrisville, Pennsylvania, near Trenton, New Jersey.
