| Title | Malcom Laing to Frances Perrin: has visited Vere and Forest; the latter has produced 35 hogsteads - the amount could be 100 with more negroes; believes Vere should be made into a pen for stock and the "negroes" transferred to Blue Mountain; was surprised to discover what was though to be an error in Perrin's title to Blue Mountain, but the purchase of the equity of redemption from Thomas Stoakes Harris has now been found and acknowledged by Harris before a judge of the grand court "without giving him time to recollect himself or to take any bad advice"; will have all Perrin's title deeds transcribed in a book. |
