    And the aforesaid Edmond Mason
in his own proper person Comes and
defends the force and Injury when &.a
and Saith that he Cannot gainsay the
action af.d of the af.d Duncan Murray
nor can he say but that he did assume
upon himself in manner and form
as the af.d Duncan Murray above
against him hath Complained and as to the damage of the same Duncan by him by occasion
of the premisses in that part Sustained the same Edmond saith and Confesseth that the
af.d Duncan hath Sustained damages by occasion of the premisses beyond his Costs and Charges
by him about his Suit in that part apposed to five pounds Six Shillings and Six pence
Current money of Maryland and not more and because the af.d Duncan denys not this
but the same allegation Confesseth to be true prays Judgment for those damages above
Confessed together with his Costs and Charges af.d to him to be adjudged &.a

Therefore by Consent of the parties af.d it is Considered that the af.d Duncan Murray recover
against the af.d Edmond Mason his damages af.d to the af.d five pounds Six Shillings
and Six pence Currant money of Maryland in form af.d Confessed as also Two hundred
215   and fifteen                                    pounds of tobacco for his Costs and Charges af.d
to the same Duncan Murray by the Court here and Consent of the parties af.d
adjudged and the af.d defend.t in mercy &.a
