note,
Tie 14th day cf July last, John Fuller, jun. mort
gaged the fame farm to Joffe Day and Ebenezer
Carrier for eight hundred and eighty pounds, re
deemable in one month from that date.
This mortgage being unredeemed, mid my nota
for the farm unpaid, to save myfelf, on the 16th
day of August last, the aforefaid Jesse Day and E
benezer Carrier, were prevailed upon t® assign their
mortgage to me, for which I paid them the principal
and interest, for which the farm was mortgaged to
them.
The 14th of August, }phn Fuller, jun. mortga
ged the fame farm to Andrew Carrier for one thou
sand pounds, payable the 12th of August next year.
This is a second mortgage, on which the greatest part
of the mortgaged money is paid by Fuller to Car
rier.
The firm is not worth m6re than the fam for
which I fold it, and for wh ; ch I now hold it under
the assignment of Fuller's firft mortgage; and as
Fuller threatens to fell the farm again, to prevent
trouble, 1 hereby m&e known the true state of the
title to said farm, and give notke, that I am deter
mined^o hold said farm against any futu# purcha
