TitleA Case in Chancery, re lands in Devon, Somerset, Essex and Middlesex.
Description3 Bundles of papers relating to the Case in Chancery brought by Hon. Newton Wallop and Hon. Coulson Wallop. Infants, represented by John, Earl of Portsmouth, their father and next friend, and Robert Fellowes of Shottisham, Norfolk, Esq., devisees named in the last Will of Henry Arthur Fellowes, late of Eggesford, Devon, and Hill Street nr. Berkeley Square, Middlesex, Esq., deceased, against William Fellowes, the brother and heir at law of H.A.Fellowes. The dispute arises over the will of the late H.A.Fellowes. The question is whether, because H.A.Fellowes was duped into leaving his lands in Devon, Somerset, Essex and Middlesex and some money to his supposed, but actually non-existent, children by Mrs Martha Brown, the rest of the will is valid. If the rest is valid, his nephew, Newton Wallop, will inherit: if it is not, his brother, William Fellowes, will as heir at law.
