Jefferson Dula sells his title to a negro girl Elsa about 12 (and some livestock) to William M Dula for $1 as collateral to secure some time to settle several debts. If Jefferson Dula does not repay the debts by 5 June 1838 then William M Dula must proceed with the sale of the property overseen by William P Witherspoon, one of the men to whom J. Dula is indebted.
