Therefore he, Jacob Roy, relinquishes the ownership of said house and lot, conveying the same to the aforesaid Abram Isacksz Planck, or whoever obtains his right, in true ownership, without the grantor claiming any further interest therein, but surrendering the same henceforth and forever. He, Jacob Jacobsz Roy, promises to hold and to cause to be held firm, binding and inviolable this deed, binding himself thereto as by law provided. Without fraud or deceit this is signed by him and the witnesses this 13^th of August 1649, New Amsterdam.
