NOTE:  Spelling is as appeared on original.  Paragraphing was added by the
transcriber for ease in reading.  I inadvertently missed copying the last part
of this indenture.  However, the missing portion would probably be very much
like the Indenture between these two (John Allen and Henry Hunt) dated the
12th of April 1736 which I have also donated to this site.
