that he had made a Deed conveying all
of his property to his relations. He said however
that as you had been so liberal with him

Seventy five dollars - he said you promised
to ("make" stricken) give ["give" written above stricken word] him a Bond for a Deed when

about it.

whether he would take the Land at Pawnee
City. Said if he ["could" stricken] concluded
to take it. He would give the Cash down-
(Would you be willing to take any less for it
if the money was all paid down?) I told him
