394 SWEDENBORG’S PRIVATE PROPERTY. [Doc. 141.
left behind, nor has he ever made, a will. Frequently, when
I asked him about it, he said, that he was not going to
trouble himself about it : let those who shall have it, take it
according to the Swedish law. The expenses during his
illness were very great, likewise the cost of his burial, so
that there is still some money due to me, of which I will send
you my bill per post.
B.
LETTER OF MR . CHAS. LINDEGREN117 TO
MESSRS. BOHMAN, HASSEL AND GÖRGES,
DATED LONDON , AUG. 11, 1772.
I hope Capt. Fox has arrived, and delivered the effects
of the late Assessor Swedenborg.
I send you enclosed his account up to the present, showing
a balance in my favour of £18. There are still three bills
to come in which I have paid, and which are in my books.
I enclose also the five bank -bills which were described in my
last, amounting in all to 2140 dalers. After Assessor Sweden
borg’s death only three guineas, or £3 : 3, were found in
his possession. These I will not put down in my account, but
I shall pay £2 : 2 to Magister Mathesius,118 who officiated
at the funeral, and £ 1 : 1 to the sexton. In addition, I must
remark that I have not given Pastor Ferelius119 any satisfaction
in respect to his complaint about the funeral. I offered him
£3 : 3, or three guineas, but he considered this too little,
and I did not feel authorized to pay away the money belong
ing to the heirs. This matter can be settled best with Pastor
Ferelius himself according to the Swedish usage, either by
yourself or Mr. Seele: for this gentleman is now in Stockholm .
There are still some books with two booksellers, but I cannot
get them without a order – about this I will however write
to you in my next.
