Be it Remembered that at a County Court held for the County afo d at the Court House in the City of Louisville on the 24 th day of October 1851 (which Court, is a Court having probate jurisdiction only authorized to grant letters of administration on the estates of decedents) the following order was entered of record to wit:
"Whereas a clerical error was committed in the order granting letters of administration to Andrew J. Buzan by this Court at the September term Friday 12 th 1851 upon the estate of Jesse Buzan; when it should have been upon the estate of Phillip Buzan (and not Jesse).
It is therefore on motion of Andrew J. Buzan who made oath according to law and produced proof showing according to the information and belief of the witnesses that Phillip Buzan, a revolutionary soldier died sometime in the fall of 1844. It is therefore ordered that letters of administration be granted to Andrew J. Buzan upon the estate of Phillip Buzan deceased as afo d whereupon he gave bond with Jeremiah Bush, his security also justified in the penalty of one thousand dollars conditioned according to law."
In Testimony whereof the foregoing is truly copied from the records of said Court. I have hereunto set my hand and affixed my the seal of said Court this 23 rd day of October AD 1851.
