and for the said defendant and at his special instance and request; and also in the further sum of
a thousand dollars, of like lawful money, for divers
goods, wares and merchandise, by the said plaintiff before that time sold and delivered to the said defendant
and at his like special instance and request; and also in the further sum of a thousand
of like lawful money, for money by the said plaintiff before that time lent and advanced to, and paid, laid
out and expended, for the said defendant and at his like special instance and request; and also in the
further sum of a thousand dollars,
of like lawful money, for other money by the said defendant before that time had and received to and for
the use of the said plaintiff; and being so indebted, the said defendant in consideration thereof, afterwards,
to wit: on the day aforesaid, at the place aforesaid, undertook, and then and there faithfully promised the
said plaintiff to pay him the said several sums of money, in this count mentioned, when the said
defendant should be thereunto afterwards requested.

And whereas also, said defendant afterards, to wit on the day and
year, and at the county last aforesaid, accounted with said plaintiff of, and concerning divers others sums
of money from the said defendant to the said plaintiff before that time due and owing, and then in arrear
and unpaid, and upon such accounting the said defendant was then and there found to be in arrear and

Nevertheless, said defendant, although often requested so to do, has not as yet paid
