This indenture made and entered into this twentyeth day of March, 1849,
between Joseph L. Oglesby, executor of Garrett Oglesby, and Frances E.
Smith.

Witnesseth that whereas on the first Tuesday in January, 1849, said
executor did expose to public sale in pursuance of an order made at the
September term, 1849, of Wilkes Superior Court by consent of all
parties thereto the tract of land herein after named after duly and
legally advertising the same for 30 days in which John Wilkerson's
heirs are jointly concerned and when upon such advertising and sale
Frances E. Smith was the highest and best bidder.

Now for and in consideration of said bid, the same being the sum of one
hundred and sixty-five dollars, to me in hand, I, the said Joseph L.
Oglesby, executor as aforesaid, do hereby bargain, grant sell and
convey unto (the) said Frances E. Smith, his heirs and assigns, all
that tract of land situate(d), lying and bounding on Pope's Chapel
Meetinghouse, the same jointly bought in their lifetime by John
Wilkerson, deceased, and Garrett Oglesby and by which a one half part
was sold also on the (first) Tuesday in January, 1849, by executors of
Wilkerson and conveyed to Frances E. Smith.

To have and to hold the same to him, his heirs and assigns forever, and
I, the said Joseph L. Oglesby, executor as aforesaid, do covenant with
the said Frances E. Smith that I am duly authorized to convey the said
premises, that I have in all things observed the requirements of the
law in said sale, and I, the said Joseph L. Oglesby, do further
covenant to warrant and defend the same unto said Frances E. Smith, his
heirs and assigns, against all persons claiming under said Garrett
Oglesby or me.

In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 20th day
of March, 1849, in presence of:

  Joel Chapin                                Joseph L. Oglesby
