- Be it known I, Bob Gordon,
In lieu of a Garden,
Has taken the herding of all
Breakey's Land.
Neither horse, mule, or ass, I'll let

Not a goat shall trespass from the

To fowl off the lake, widgeon, wild duck
or drake
I'll let lay beak to a grain of his corn

And I'll rise with daylight to keep(continues on next page)
