(a) [Before 12 October 1702.] Newton to Northey. Holograph memorandum. Enquires, citing the precedents of 21 masters' indentures dating back to the reign of Edward III, whether the master should find securities before signing his oath, if so whether this should be mentioned in the indenture itself, and exactly what covenants he binds himself to by this security.
(b)12 October 1702: Northey's reply (in his own hand, in gaps in the manuscript apparently left by Newton for this purpose) that established precedent should be followed.
