James BULL of Brighton Sussex, Hotel Keeper. Thomas BARBER of Brighton, Sussex. Grocer. Samuel GUMBRELL of Poynings, Sussex. Brewer. Charles CHALK of Brighton, Sussex. Gentleman. SUBJECT The document begins by reciting an Indenture of April 1853 in which Thomas Barber mortgaged property in Poynings to James Ball for £100. The mortgage is still owing but Thomas Barber has put the property up for public auction at the New Inn, Hurstpierpoint, where it was sold to Samuel Gumbrell for £270. This conveyance is to complete the sale, with £100 being paid direct to James Bull to discharge the mortgage. The property consists of 4 freehold messuages in Poynings, Sussex. Note that Charles Clark appears to act only as some sort of Trustee and plays very little real part. | |||||||||||
