- Summary
- William asks Peter's advice on the handling of an insolvency case pending before him. He explains that he does not want the rights and interests of others to be sacrificed because of his own inexperience. And he says that as far as he can ascertain, there are very few counties where there are more insolvent cases than in his, and he wants the practice in his to accord with Peter's.
