Item 19 - Deposition of Thomas Attwood (17 Magdalene Street), 1884

1 item, paper

Deposition of Thomas Attwood (butcher) in relation to a packet of deeds he held as security from Mrs Ann Peters who had borrowed money in relation to 17 Magdalene Street. His grandson (aged about 7 years) had cut off the top and bottom of one of the documents so that he could cover a book and so the signature and seal were missing. As the document mentioned the name 'Shilley' he assumed it related to the other documents belonging to Ann Peters and so he put it with them. He had not kept the bits that his grandson had removed.
