- Brooklyn, New York: , 15 October 1796.
Original vellum sheet, 16 1/2" X 25 1/2", handwritten. Original signatures and seals on the bottom of document have been cut off, original horizontal and vertical folds, some edge folds, slight foxing and staing; otherwise very good. Remarkably legible document spells out the terms of an agreement between the parties. This is a deed for release of a parcel of land in "the seventh ward in the city of New York" for 100 pounds of "lawful money." There are some notations on the verso naming some of the parties.
