Pursuant to the request of 1lr. De I.e. Chaise,attorney for t ho' King and His Uajesty's Counselor­in-ohief in the Colony, the creditors of NioholasBion, heretofore employed by the Company of theIndies, are . this day assembled.

Ur. De I.e. Chaise represents the insolvenoy of1lr . Bion, ..mo is unable to meet his obligations in.thole or in part , and recoimnends the gr ant i ng ofpermission for his return to France, thereby creat­ing a possibility for future payment, through theassistanoe of his family and employment \~ich hemay secure.

Mr . De I.e. Chaise, ' furthermore, r epresents thatthe smountll due oreditors are small, and \mereas theCompany, to rrhcm Bion oms a far gr e a t er sum. is in­clined to show leniency, he is convinced that theoreditors will do likewise; ..mereupon said oreditors,with the exo~ption of Sieur Duval representing Hr .Pereault, t1t1aI11.llInusly agree to Bion' 0 return to France.

Consequently, Bion intervenes, extendo thanks,and voluntarily obligates himoelf to pay said credi­tors during the next year (1730), pledging as seouritya mortgage on porsonal effects of present and. futurecnmarship.

IJ

Petitioner alleges that he owned a lot ofground adjoining property of defendant, who de­sired to purohase said lot for 500 livr.es; how­ever, as the property did not meet the require­ments of the Ordinanoe of Aug. 10, 1728, theauthorization of the Counoi1 was unobtainable.

Petitioner, furthermore, alleges that aftertaking oognizanoe of his oonfinement in a Hospital,and of his family responsibilities, the Counoi1kindly suggested that a transfer might be effeot­uated by annexation of said lot to the Company'sdomain. whereupon petitioner proceeded to bindhimself'; consequently, Sr. D'Auseville is actuallyin possession of said lot, obtained through agrant in his nephew's nane j thereby abusing pe­titioner's good faith and profiting of his rankto deprive petitioner of 500 livres, by declaringhis own nephew the debtor.

Petitioner, finally, alleges that he cansubstantiate the foregoing statements, provingSr. D'Auseville to be the true debtor and con­tracting party.

Furthermore, Mr. Henry very erroneously as­sumed that Mr. D'Auseville's so-called nephew al­lowed him to use his name to effectuate the grant­ing of said lot.

As mosi; convincing proof of the falsity ofMr. Henry's assertions, Mr. D'Auseville wishes toinform his fellaH councillors that he attributestoday's eventualities to a disagreement of recentoccurrenoe between himself and Mr. Henry, regard­ing the latter's rental of a house situated onOrleans Street and owned by Mr. D'Auseville.

Raymond Amysault Esquire D'Auseville bitterlyresents utter disregard of his position, as evi­denoed by issuanoe of summons un der signature ofMr. Baron, a fellow oounoillor; and answers ,Mr.Henry's aoousations as follows =

He at no time intended to, nor 'di d he ever,negotiate for the purohase of Mr. Henry's proper­ty, but his so-oalled nephew, a Mr. Terrebonne,(wh" is really the nephew of his first wife) uponbeing advised of Mr. Henry's attem¢s to disposeof said property, visited him at the Hospital andsubmitted an offer to purohase, whioh was rejeot­ed for reasons set forth in Mr. Henry's petition.Subsequently, Mr. Terrebonne obtained this proper­ty through a grant. I'ohereupon, Mr. Henry, findinghimself totally deprived of his property, (whiohhe had abandoned 3"months previouslyOsolioited thegood offioes of Sr~ Abbe Berthelot, the Chaplainin chaz-ge , who sent for Terrebonne and by threatof having his grant revoked induoed him to oompro­mise with Mr. Henry for 200 livres, whioh amount 'Sr. Berthelot paid to Mr. Henry, and aooeptedTerrebonne's note payable on demand.
