Land to be sold to

No. 2.
WHEREAS Peter Chaille, of Worcester county, did
purchase of
the late intendant of the revenue a tract of land in said county, by
the name of Limbrick, for the sum of twenty-two shillings and six-pence
current money per acre, which said tract of land was sold
for one hundred acres, and by actual survey the said tract of land
is found to contain one hundred and forty and one half acres, which
surplus land the said Peter Chaille is desirous to purchase at the
same price: And whereas it also appears, that since the purchase
aforesaid from the said intendant, that there was a right of dower
in said lands, which was not known to exist at the time, and for
which the said Peter Chaille has paid the sum of twenty-two pounds
ten shillings current money, which ought to be allowed; therefore,
RESOLVED, That the state agent sell to the said Peter Chaille the
said forty and one half acres of land at the price of twenty-two
shillings and six-pence current money per acre, with interest from
the date of the original purchase of the intendant, and that the said
Peter Chaille be allowed out of the purchase money aforesaid, by
the agent aforesaid, the sum of twenty-two pounds ten shillings
current money as a compensation for the money by him paid for
the dower aforesaid. |
