The formerly enslaved woman named Maddalena agrees to work as a servant to Luchina Castagna, a nun in the monastery of Sant'Agata de Ponte in the Bisagno Valley, for a term of three years to repay a debt to a baker named Giovanni, known as Fonte Aghuso, who had arranged to pay the slaveholder Francesco Spinola secure her freedom. Luchina agrees to pay Giovanni the sum of 19 Genoese lire for the three year term. The contracts stipulates that if Maddalena can remit the 19 lire before the end of the three-year term then she will be released from service, and if she serves at least one year, then she can be released from service by paying a proportional amount of the debt. The nature of the contract suggests that Giovanni had agreed to pay Francesco 16 lire for the manumission of Maddalena and, acting as her custodian, arranged for her service in the monastery for which he charged an extra 3 lire for expenses. There may have also been a conjugal relationship between Giovanni and Maddalena.
