Mortgage Indenture, 1897, original, on parchment, with seals, revenue stamp & signature, 67.5 cms x 56.0 cms, condition: very good.

An indenture is a legal contract between two parties, particularly for indentured labour or a term of apprenticeship but also, in this case, for a land transaction. The term comes from the medieval English "indenture of retainer", a legal contract written in duplicate on the same sheet, with the copies separated by cutting along a jagged (toothed, hence the term "indenture") line so that the teeth of the two parts could later be refitted to confirm authenticity (chirograph). Each party to the deed would then retain a part.
