Summary:
Acknowledgment by Don Giovanni di Bartolo, from Barberino Val d'Elsa, outside Florence, of the conspicuous inheritance left to him a few years prior by his father. The choice of Don Giovanni was made following the death of his brother, Bartolomeo, who passed away without a valid will and left a large amount of debt. Notarized by Giovanni di Simone di Marco from Florence on 20 May 1412 before the witness Guiduccio di Domenico del Monte. Filed with the document is a short, later summary written in Italian on paper.
