This document, prepared by J. Stillwell Stockton, attorney for defendant Moses Grinter in a lawsuit against Daniel Powell, outlines Grinter's defense. Grinter maintained that it was not he who owed money to Powell for damages to a ferry boat, but Powell who owed him. Grinter, a Kentucky man, had run the ferry at the Delaware Crossing of the Kansas River since 1830.
