1760. Ink on parchment with two wax seals. 12 x 23 inches. One parchment membrane, cut in half vertically resulting in significant loss of text. Two wax seals next to two signatures remain at bottom; one ink stamp on left margin, one paper stamp on verso and one on recto. Ink on parchment with two wax seals. 12 x 23 inches. Indenture in English naming several figures and giving details about land tenure. Two wax seals and signatures are an uncommon survival. Of potential teaching interest due to the clear hand and the fact that it's in English. (Inventory #: 313288)
