Thoughts |
| The Court met persuant to adjournment. |
SOLVED: I was expecting something like "called", "returned", "opened" or "convened". Changing the previous word from "was" to "met" and then "persuant" fit. Research discovers that a common phrase at the time was "persuant to adjournment." |
| The two fires of the different parties were so near together, ... |
SOLVED: Expected "gun" or "rifle". Found "two" later in the document and they match. |
| ... immediately assented to by the balance of the party. |
SOLVED: First thought "sal and" |
| Did you see the party I was with ... |
SOLVED: I was expecting something like "see" but that is surely an "r" for the last character. Oh, an e more like a capital E / backwards 3. |

| Do you know there were any shots from ... |
SOLVED: First though the last two words were "the men", but if the first is "know", then "there were" fits better. |

SOLVED: The descender from the previous line makes it harder, but "strictest" seems to fit. |
| ... I will venture as briefly as ... |
SOLVED: The "vent" is pretty clear, rest from context. |
| ... self aggrieved & for ___ of discretion, ... |
Context suggest "matters" or "reasons", neither seems to fit. Currently believe this to be "want". |
| ... same crime & ___ for the second act ... |
By context maybe "then" or "some". Descender from previous line distracts... Hmm, maybe "how"? Currently believe this to be "then". |
| ... it would naturally be supposed it would ... |
SOLVED: The "pp" and ending "d" are obvious, "supposed" fits by context. |
| ... it would fucate in my favor ... |
Context expects something like "seem to be" |
| The Court after mature deliberation ... |
SOLVED: Context expects something like "making", which this surely is not. Research discovers that a common phrase at the time was "mature deliberation." |
| ... on the testimony adduced, find the ... |
SOLVED: The "add" and "ed" both seem obvious. Context suggests "advanced", although "admitted" may be another term by context. Neither seems to fit. Research discovers that a common phrase at the time was "testimony adduced."
adduced: to bring forward or offer in argument or evidence. |
