R. so being of the premisses seised about ten yeres now past It was condiscended granted agreed betweene the said W. R. and one I. E. late of H. in the said countie deceased that A. B. then sonne and heire apparant of the said W. R. before a certaine day should marry and take to his wife one A. E. daughter of the said I. E. and that the said W.
