Indenture

Indenture is a deed made by  mode parties than one, so called because there ought regularly to be as many copies of it as there are parties; duplicates of very deed inter parts were formerly written on one skin, and the skin was cut in half irregularly, or with jagged edge, or indended like the teach of a saw or in a waiving line, to tally or correspond on with the other; so that when the duplicates were produced in court they were seen to belong to one another by fitting into one another.
