Potter Ferry Society Trustees in Court Over Death Contributions
A Greenwich trustee sued a waterman in Blackheath Court of Requests for 63 pounds, the death contributions of several members. The defendant refused to pay, claiming a short commitment. The judge ordered seven days’ imprisonment to compel payment, noting imprisonment does not extinguish the debt. If needed, longer confinement could follow.
