Robert Alexander Esqr - Sworn -
Mr Alexander is asked whether he
was acquainted with any Claim which Mr Fras
Brerewood had on a Manor called My Lady’s
Manor or Lord Baltimores Gifts -
Says he remembers the Ejectment being
tried at the supreme Court and a special verdict
found - He was at the Bar when it was tried.
The verdict must have been found
before the Battle of Lexington - for after that
Event no Court was held to do Business -
None after April 1775.
He thinks the special Verdict must
have been found in the Sepr Court of 1774 and

Brerewoods, as it involves several Legal
Questions- but the general Reputation of the
