Summary of contents

The Rev John LANDER of Donnington Rectory, Herefordshire.

SUBJECT
The recitals at the beginning of this document look complex, but it seems that Richard KING owns property in the Manor of Marston Maysey, subject to a mortgage now held by John LANDER and Ryves GRAVES. James HEADING is now buying this property for £360, of which £350 will go direct to John LANDER and Ryves GRAVES to pay off the mortgage and £10 goes to Richard KING.

The property is a plot of arable land called Marshill totalling 7 acres in the Parish of Marston Maysey.

John DYKE appears to act only as a trustee and plays little real part.
