To all men to whom these presents shall come. I, A. B., of Bengal [part owner and], master of the ship called the "Exeter," of the burden of five hundred tons and upwards, now riding at anchor in Table Bay, at the Cape of Good Hope, send greeting;

Whereas I, the said A.

And I, the said A. B., do, for me, my executors, and administrators, covenant and grant to and with the said C. D., his executors and administrators, by these presents, that I, the said A.

D. did contract and agree with the said A. B. to advance the sums of money necessary to enable him to pay the same charges and expenses upon the goods and merchandise, lately the cargo of the said ship "Albany," to be re-shipped and forwarded from Odessa to their destination, that is to say, to the port of London in England, it being expressly agreed before any part of such advance was made, that such advance should be by way of respondentia on the said cargo in the voyage last aforesaid; and whereas under and pursuant to the agreement last aforesaid the sum of was advanced
