INJURY of TIMBER.
I JOSEPH SEARLE, of Beer, in the county
of Devon, having TOPPED and LOPPED several
MAIDEN TREES, within the manor of Beer, the pro-
perty of John Rolle, Esq. for which he had justly ordered
a prosecution against me, but on my promising to make this
public acknowledgement, to deter others from committing
the like offence, has withdrawn the same; being sensible of
the injury sustained, I am truly thankful for the lenity
I have experienced.
The Mark † of JOSEPH SEARLE.
Witness,
ROBERT HEAD.
CHRISTOPHER SEARLE.
