Hello,
I am trying to transcribe a document that my father found in our family farmhouse from 1897. It is an agreement between a gentleman and my GG Grandfather and his brother regarding the let of animal and farm equipment.
I can read most of it, but there is a section that I am having trouble with that I have attached. I'd appreciate confirmation that what I have is correct and any suggestions on what might be written where I have noted [unintelligible].
My best attempt was:
The party of the first part also lets the parties of the second part the following property, personal & real, one wood mower, one Hollingsworth rake, one breaking plow, one stirring plow, one 3 ¼ in Mitchell Wagon, one Studabaker four seated [unintelligible] & Ranch & [unintelligible - is this implements?]. The parties of the second part agree to pay the party of the first part one hundred & fifty dollars per annum as rental for ranch farming implements, horses, cattle, etc.
