Text refers to a mortgage agreement between Joseph Randall (and his wife Jane) as the \"grantee\" of a $2000 mortage payable to Edward Bonsall (Hannah G.), John H. Brinton (Attorney at Law and wife Sarah), John Crean (House Carpenter and wife, Mary), and Edward Shippen Burd (Attorney at Law) \"grantors\". The land described in the document is noted as being on the south side of Spruce St., 55 ft. from the East Side of Delaware Seventh St. The southern border is a 20 ft. \"Portland Alley\". The length or depth is 100 ft. See document scans for additional description of the land situation. (I believe that the land was located in an area that is now known as the historic neighborhood of \"Society Hill\".)
