In Abbe against Murray, the Master’s Report on an annuity of 150 to Captain John Hilliard is challenged. The case hinges on Moore’s 1783 will and 1785 amendment, whether the life annuity persists after Moore’s death, and how the 4000 pound legacy and bond affect the annuity for Hilliard or his mother.
