Scope and Content

Surrender of property detailed in Doc 1690 (the Croload land is omitted, perhaps in error) by John Stocker Freaks and his wife Margaret to John Gardner of Chatteris esq, securing a bond of even date to pay Gardner #160 (plus interest) over and above the #140 secured by the surrender of 1793 (Doc 1694). Copied signatures of John Stocker Freaks and Margaret Freaks, examined by William Dunn esq, lord of half the manor, and steward of the manor of Chatteris Ramsey. Dunn acknowledges retention of the original. An endorsement of discharge dated 10 Apr 1810, is signed by Thomas Sewell, steward.
