Bradford, Vermont Orange County

In March 1812, the town entered into a contract with Jonathan Austin, one of
its inhabitants, to lease the above mentioned 300 acres of school-land to
him, his heirs and assigns, as long as wood should grow or water run, for
the consideration of the interest, at 6 per cent to be annually paid, on the
sum of $1666.67, amounting to $100 yearly; at the same time allowing the
said Austin, his heirs and assigns, the privilege of paying the above named
principal, in three equal installments, at his or their option. These
installments were, in the course of a few years, paid, and the claim of the
town to the said lands finally alienated.
