the within indenture unto John Parrish for the contents therein

NOTE:  This deed was recorded in Wilkes County in 1788. It was also 
recorded in Warren County in 1796 where the affidavit was attached. 
A portion of the deed was lost that was recorded in Wilkes County 
which necessitated the second recording in Warren. The copy here 
was extracted from the Warren County courthouse.
