- In the suit of Robert Fletcher vs. William Scott (Ejectment Proceedings), a jury was impaneled and returned the following verdict:
We find the last will and testament of John Savage, late of Northampton County, Gentleman, dated 26 August 1678, hereto annexed ---- we also find that the devisee, John Savage, died on or about the year ____(1720) and left an only son also named John, who died on or about the ___ day of ___ 174_, and left to an only son named John who is now living. We find that the last mentioned John Savage, the great grandson, is an infant under the age of 21 years, and that before the above supposed trespass was supposed to be committed he chose the Defendant (William Scott) in the Court of the aforesaid County as his guardian, who so continues to be. We find that the John Savage, the grandson, by his indenture bearing the date 25 December 1745, in consideration of £30 current money demised the premises on which the supposed trespass was committed, from 25 December, to the plaintiff (Robert Fletcher) for the term of 10 years then next following, under the yearly rent of on shilling & quit rents as by the said indenture hereto annexed (not filed among the papers); we find that the land so demised to the plaintiff (Robert Fletcher) is part of the land devised by John Savage the elder, to his daughter Grace Corbin and her husband George, and that after her said husband George's death she intermarried with one ___ Bloxom, and left issue Savage Bloxom, who after her death entered into the premises and died without issue, and after the death of the said Savage Bloxom the said John Savage the grandson entered the premises. (NOTE: The jury evidently confused the descendants of Grace Corbin and her husband George. The fact is that George Corbin outlived Grace and married secondly a Susanna ___ by who he had two sons Dr. Ralph Corbin and Robert Corbin. He and Grace had a daughter Ann Corbin, who married John Bloxom and had the son Savage Bloxom (1714-1737) mentioned above.)
