     December 1858 for seventy nine dollars and 99 cents.

     and feeling anxious and desirous to secure the said WISDOM in the
     aforesaid sums of money due and owing as aforesaid, I have this day
     bargained and sold and doth by these presents bargain, sell, and
     deliver unto the said Wisdom and unto his heirs, etc the following
     property to wit:

     It is further understood between the said WISDOM and myself that all
     of the above named property is to be and remain in my possession
     until the first day of February 1859 and, should I fail to pay and
     fully satisfy all of said notes on or before that time, that then
     and in that case, I hereby authorize the said WISDOM or his agent to
     take possession of all the described named property and advertise
     and sell the same to the highest bidder for cash after giving 10
     days' notice of the time and place.  If the property brings more
     than I may be owing on said notes, I am to have it, but if less, it
     goes to my credit.
