Hi, John. As a collector of old documents I surely would like to see a couple of your "numerous indenture papers", Thanks.

I have numerous indenture papers that show agreement to not only teach a trade, but to include cyphering, reading and writing. This was mostly for young boys, but I have from time to time seen girls included.
