Thereafter, provided Nicholas drops any legal action then in process against his mother or stepfather, his mother reserves the right to transfer to him the uses of the trust. Tripartite indenture, signed and sealed by Barlow and Hobart, witnessed by ?Francis Ashley, Elizabeth Ashley, Edward Sprage, and William Mearsh. Two adhesive labels attached, bearing numbers: '609' and '885'.
