Mortgage indenture regarding land in Mendocino County, California, once owned by the late William A. Richardson. The indenture describes that Richardson and his wife Maria in 1853 and 1854 "did convey. . . certain lands" in Mendocino County to Charles S. Compton and Donald Davidson, who in turn sold the land to Robert Walkinshaw, Benjamin Davidson, and William Hood. $35,000 was also paid to Richardson's heirs to clear debts on the estate, with those funds being held in trust for Julius May by Davidson, Samuel R. Throckmorton, and Davidson's attorney, Alexander Forbes. The indenture releases Throckmorton from claims on the land and also releases the land from any further mortgages or liens. Possibly in the handwriting of Benjamin Davidson. Signed by Davidson and by Forbes for Walkinshaw.
