366 SWEDENBORG’S CORRESPONDENCE. [Doc. 126.
received hers, but I have not received my second seventh of
the remaining stock; of this there are still 233 pund due to
me ; now I know that Schultz has paid all correctly. Besides,
for house rent, which brother Benzelstierna collected before
I came to Upsal, and which was paid to Werner’s67 widow
for the hymn book; under this head I am short of what my
other brothers and sisters have received, by 116 pund. All
these I have not received, amounting in all to 894 pund,
which belong to me simply from the proceeds of the large
stone house above-named, and which brother Benzelstjerna
has long ago received. I have to pay heavy interest on
borrowed money, while others enjoy my money. Please be a
good friend to me, and beg him to pay me, and let me have
a correct account of the whole amount. I do not understand
how I can be unworthy of receiving any answer to all those
letters which I have written to him , and the number of which
it would be hard to ascertain. As I have no one but you to
whom I can apply, I therefore beg you to see that justice is done
me, which may be effected by your writing a serious letter to
him . How it is with the little stone house, I do not yet know,
I have no knowledge whether brother Emanuel is still alive,
or whether he is dead. With many kind remembrances to
you and sister Anna from my wife and myself, I remain
forever, most honoured and dear brother,
Your humble servant,
JESP. SWEDENBORG , 52
