  • 1.  It is likely that this is referring to John Miller, not Miner, an Eastern Pequot man who married into the Mohegan Tribe and had recently died incurring a variety of different types of debt for the Eastern Pequot Overseer to settle. See  other related documents
  • 2. In the original document, these last three entries were added on the back side of the report along with the judicial notation.
