Gardner, being a Bond obliging Brown to pay Gardner, 1 page, 7.5" x 12", Orange, Essex County, New Jersey, payments are recorded on verso. A very small tear at right margin, and a tiny amount of separation at the fold.

"Gardner or his legal representatives shall free the said land" from a widow's claim upon it.
