Jno Hodgson
Signed sealed and delivered in presense of us
At a Court held the 16th day of August 1734 Jno Hodgson acknowledged his deeds for land etc. to Thos. Manning at whose motion the same are admitted to record.
Test: Solo. Wilson
*note: this deed was very hard to read, so corrections may be in order
Also. it's worth noting that at the beginning of the deed to says the deed is between John Hodgson and John Manning, but throughout the rest of the deed it refers to Thos. Manning buying the land. Therefore I think the John Manning referred to at first is actually a clerical error and should be Thos. Manning.
