Mortgage For
Maria Louise Benson Harrison

Whereas I, Maria Harrison, am... justly indebted to V McBee, in the amount of $201.43 and interest payable on or before 25 Dec next. I therefore mortgage to V McBee the following slave, to wit, Allen about 10-12 yrs of age...
Nevertheless, if I, the sd Maria L. Harrison... shall pay... the sum of $201.43 on or before the due date, this mortgage shall be cancelled. If note not paid, Allen, after 10 days of public notice may be sold at public auction.
Sd. Allen is now working with Dyer and Mooney, tailors, in this place. McBee is to control the boy and either let him continue to work or take him into his own possession.
