Two weeks after Easter 1661 or 1662

This is the final agreement, made in the Court of the Lord King at Westminster on the fifteenth day of Easter in the 13th year of the reign of Charles the Second, by the grace of God, King of England, Scotland, France and Ireland, Defender of the Faith etc, from the Conquest, before the Judges Orlando Bridgeman, Robert Hyde, Thomas Tyroll and Samuel Brown and other faithful subjects of the Lord King then there present, between Daniel Wills and Gertrude his wife, plaintiffs and Joseph Toker, gentleman and Margaret his wife deforciants concerning two messuages, one barn, two gardens, two orchards ten acres of arable land, three acres of meadow, fifteen acres of pasture and twenty acres of furze-break and heath with appurtenances in Trecalins alias Trecollas Popehouse Alternon and Blisland, whence a plea of covenant was summoned between them in the same court, namely that the aforesaid Joseph and Margaret acknowledged the aforesaid tenement with appurtenances to be the right of Daniel himself as that which the same Daniel and Gertrude had by gift of the aforesaid Joseph and Margaret and which they remised and quitclaimed from Joseph and Margaret and their heirs to the aforesaid Daniel and Gertrude and the heirs of Daniel himself for ever. And moreover the same Joseph and Margaret have granted for themselves and the heirs of the same Joseph that they will warrant to the aforesaid Daniel and Gertrude and the heirs of Daniel himself the aforesaid tenement with appurtenances forever. And for this acknowledgement, remise, quitclaim, warrant, fine and agreement the same Daniel and Gertrude gave to the aforesaid Joseph and Margaret sixty pounds sterling.

Although ordinary dating was used during the Interregnum and Commonwealth Charles II reign was considered to have started on his father's death on 30 January 1649
