                The Plaintife arresting the Deft in an aeon of debt to the value
              of 840 lb of tobaccoe preferreth his Declaracon (vizt)

                To the Worple the Comissionrs of Charles Countie.
                The Plaintife declares agt the Defendt for that the Defendt
              stands indebted to the Plaintife in the sume of eight hundred and
              fourtie weight of tobaccoe p accot under hand signed and doth deny

                The Defendt Confesseth the debt but pleadeth tht the Plaintife
              refused his tobaccoe wch he tendered to him in satisfacon thereof

                The Court finds for the Plaintife, but give judgment that the
              tobaccoe tendered to him by the Defendt ought to have been re-
              ceaved by the Plainti fe being merchantable tobac for that it was
              afterwards receaved as such by another.
