has description
The slaveholders Gabriele Doria and Battista Richeme enter into an agreement regarding the sale of an enslaved woman who had been sold by Gabriel to Battista at some earlier date. The enslaved woman had been sold for 140 Genoese lire, with a payment made in a measure of cloth valued at 106 lire and the remaining 34 lire in money of account. Battista noted that the enslaved woman was suffering from a lack of menstruation and that the statutes of the commune of Genoa allowed that she be returned due to a violation of the health clause in the original sales contract. The two men agreed that should the enslaved woman be unable to menstruate within four months, then she could be returned into the possession of Gabriele and the cloth and account money returned to Battista.
