This Presentation Note was made by "A" and his wife.
Not being able to take care of their own daughter owing to
high cost of living, they are willing to present her to
someone.
At first their relatives were asked to take her
but none could or would do so. Then "B", a go-between" intro-
duced her to "C", who agreed to adopt her as a fostered
daughter, and he further agreed to reimburse to the parents
of the girl a sum of 95 dollars,being cost of ginger and
vinegar (maintenance expenses).
It was arranged and agreed
by the three parties, and full payment of the sum of $5 dollars
was made on this day to deliver of the child to "C".
After the child has been handed over to the "C"family
"C" will take good care of her, and when she comes of age,
she will be married by order of "C" and at the same time
her parents will be informed of her marriage so that they may
have the right of visit thereafter.
In case of any misfortune befallen the girl,it is
heaven's decree.
Lest words of mouth should not be sufficient, this
Presentation Note is given to "C" as proof.
The girl was born in Ding Chi year, 9th moon, "Chi" time,
about 10.a.m. a native of Fak Tang Kong Mee,in Shun Tak Distri
