 QUOTE
 Stealey vs. Waggoner--O. S. 192; N. S. 68--In 1772 John Gillihan
 made a settlement in now County of Wythe and sold to Henry Waggoner,
 who on 6th February, 1775, obtained a survey under the Loyal Company
 for 476 acres and then sold to Jacob Hetrick, who sold to orator, Martin
 Stealey, before 12th September, 1782, and on that date Martin obtained a
 certificate from the Commissioners. In 1798, by some mistake, the grant
 issued to Henry Waggoner, who is now dead, leaving heirs and
 representatives, viz: Henry, Michael, Jacob, John, Lewis, Lindsay,
 Catherine, Barbara, Margaret, Susannah Waggoner, Henry, Lavinia, William,
 Jerry, James, Sally, Catherine and Betsey Newland. Spa. 8th September,
 1809. All defendants (except James and Betsey Newland?) are non-residents.
