The names of the seller are left blank while the buyers are noted as Henry Jackson & Royal Flint for themselves and associates. The document is divided into ten articles and proclaims that the buyers are getting a price of ten cents per acre to be payable in nine payments for a total of [Dollar sign]243,802. Stipulates that the buyers need to get 2,500 settlers to move to the lands in twelve years and that they will need to pay thirty dollars of the six percent stock of the United States for each person if there is a deficient number of settlers.
