Original handwritten land deed draft, dated February 6, 1849, from Sumter District, South Carolina. Measures approx. 7.5" × 12.5".
The document records a conveyance of land from Edward Broughton to William H. B. Richardson, planter. Neatly penned with boundary descriptions, it bears an embossed paper seal but is unsigned, suggesting it is a preparatory draft or a deed that was never formally executed.
