"This indenture of 1814-15 records the assignment to the wealthy slave owner and politician Christopher Bethell Cordington by the trustees and grandson of Sir Peter Parker the rights to a sugar planation on Antigua called Skerretts. The document recites details concerning the history of ownership of the estate. Numbering 500 acres in the parish of St. John, it was named after owner Robert Skerrett and later became known as Clare Hall estate." –Description from Samuel Gedge, bookseller
