Whereby, having recited: firstly, the 19th-20th. Nov., 1805 release, in consideration of £7,083/10/-, by William Brown and William Worthington (as Catherine Orton's trustees) to Richard Bond (in 1806 described as in PA/101/10/17), with James Lakin (in 1806 described as of Whateley, gent.) as trustee, of Wilnecote manor subject to (a) land-tax payable upon 1a.2r.10p. (bought by C. Orton from Jane Patrick and her two children) and upon closes totalling 5a.3r.6p. (bought by Orton from William Moggs), (b) a 24th. Oct., 1795 lease (made by Orton with Samuel Coton for "Coal Waste" for 21 years from the then-following Lady Day for £7 p.a. rent) and (c) a 10th. Dec., 1774 lease (made by Revd. Richard Jackson, clerk with Samuel Thompson for a Wilnecote cottage for 99 years from the then-following 5th.
