The court met two days in April. GW was present from the beginning today, but he came late the next day, arriving after five items of business were finished (Fairfax County Order Book for 1768–70, 120–27, Vi Microfilm). John West, Jr., and his wife Catharine Colvill West lived near Cameron (GW to West, Dec. 1767, DLC and 4 July 1773, NNgWHM). GW today lost £2 15s. 6d. at cards and apparently lost £1 1s. more on the following day (General Ledger A description begins General Ledger A, 1750–1772.
