Jon Kukla's recent post about the misfortune of Judge Isaac Smith brought to
mind the following:

"Sept. 1735 - William Arbuckle, Attorney, writes from Accomack County that
on Sunday he was seized with a fever.  He also has a monstrous boil on a
very inconvenient place for riding.  This is the reason that he asks that
his cases be held until the next Court.  He hopes that this will be the last
time that he will be required to ask.  Dated 8 April 1735."

Jean M. Mihalyka, comp., Loose Papers and Sundry Court Cases, 1732-1744/5:
Northampton County, Virginia, Volume II (Eastville: Hickory House, 200), p. 52.
