Moses Hart, on the other hand, had been forging ahead in the world. He had married into a wealthy family, his wife being a daughter of Samuel Heilbuth and sister-in-law of Benjamin Levy. When Godolphin was Lord High Treasurer he received according to report a lucrative appointment as Government agent. At one time, he is said to have had in hand dealings in stocks to the value of one and a half million pounds. And, on the principle that "unto everyone that hath shall be given", fortune too smiled on him. In the Original Weekly Journal for 1719, we read under the heading "Engagements ":
7th November 1719. We hear a marriage is on Foot between Mr. Isaac Franks, and a Daughter of Mr. Moses Hart, the two Gentlemen who got the twenty Thousand Pound Prize in the present Lottery; so that by Virtue of this agreement Mr. Franks is to have the whole twenty Thousand Pound. [5]
