INDENTED.

Indented, It cannot be a Deed indented, unless it be actually indented; for albeit the words of the Deed be haec indentura; yet if it be not indented, indeed it is no Indenture; but if the Deed be in∣dented, albeit the words of the Deed be not haec* 1.1 indentura, yet it is an Indenture.

Deeds indented are called by severall Names, as Scriptum indentatum, charta indentata, indentura, literae indentatae. An Indenture is a Writing con∣taining a Conveyance, Bargain, Contract, Cove∣nants or Argreements between two or more; and is indented in the top or side answerable to ano∣ther* 1.2 that comprehendeth the self-same matter. It is called an Indenture, because each part in the top or side, Similiter scinditur in morem dentium, ut pa∣res esse cognoscantur.
