I spoke to the said Winn concerning that affair & he promised he would have it done. I told Mrs Holland what Mr Winn said & she in my hearing asked her husband Michael Holland if he was willing that Gift should be Recorded & he the said Holland agreed to it in August or September in the year of 1762 but five weeks before the said Michael Holland death he the said Michael Holland come to my house & as we sat at Dinner in the yard, the the said
Page 315
Holland said what a fine thing it was to have a small Family, for his was so large that he wished that his children was old enough to go for themselves. I getting up from the Table, went into the House and as I step'd out again I heard my daughter Elizabeth say to the said Michael Holland What you intend the Blacks shall go to the Whites yes said the said Michael Holland I have given my daughter Mary two & I intend to give Joseph two & mentioned their names they being two Boys I said to Michael Holland you dont divide them equally you should have given Mary a Girl & a Boy & Joe a Girl & a Boy, no said the said Michael Holland Mary seemed to make choice of them two & them I have given her & them she shall have.
