"Initially handed over to one William Bleamire 'as Collateral Security for the payment' of £3,477 in 1776, its control was to remain in Price's hands, but if no attempt was made to pay off at least the interest owing on the debt within a year, Bleamire was given the right of auctioning the property on his own behalf."
