The attached document is a "Certificate" of a survey performed by Allen Wright for Stephen Bowyer and Alexander Dill in April, 1823. It's 36 acres that they're apparently considering to buy from Alexander Dill. It's in Range 2 Section 17 Twp 4. Why this was in with Hurin's documents, I'm not sure but it's a nice little piece involving a number of early settlers. One other land owner is mentioned in the measuring and that's Joel Holley.
[Note: The surveyed parcel would be in the Southwest part of Section 17. See Deerfield Twp on the 1867 Warren County Wall Map]
