 +
 +
嘉慶六年辛酉十二月十五日宗子岦處許與文
 +
 +
The document of property distribution to the legitimate son, Rip, on the fifth day of the twelfth month the year sinyu [1801], the sixth year of the Jiaqing era.
 +
 +
右文爲許與事 
 +
 +
The document mentioned on the right is to bequeath my property as follows:
 +
 +
昔在辛酉年間 吾與故奴日先次奉禾里同等十名相議 刱出四石租穀(谷)爲設契
 +
 +
Earlier, in the year sinyu [1741], I and ten slaves, including the late slaves Ilseon, Chabong, and Hwaridong, had a discussion to pool four seok of rice and established a gye (“compact”).
 +
 +
 +
而二石吾出之 二石奴輩出之 因之曰奴主契
 +
 +
I pooled two seok and a group of slaves pooled the other two seok, thereby we named it Noju gye (“slave-master compact”).
 +
 +
 +
多年貨殖者 保奴屬爲宗家計也
 +
 +
For many years we increased profits to protect slaves and to do good head family.
 +
 +
宗家垣牆修毁之日 及其他雜役使喚之時 皆出契穀(谷) 以爲要用是遣 
 +
 +
[For example,] when the family had to renovate the fences and thus slaves were employed to do the miscellaneous menial work, all of us could take grain out of the compact granary for the necessary purposes.
 +
 +
 +
又値年荒 則契中出用分給者 已多年數矣
 +
 +
Also encountering a drought, we have taken grain from the compact and distributed evenly amongst us.
 +
 +
中間契穀 或食或逃亡者 或食身死者 則全不收捧 閪失頗多
 +
 +
Meanwhile, some ate grain and ran away, and others ate and then died, so we could not recollect them and such losses were huge.
 +
 +
 +
故更議買畓 每名各給二斗落 次知耕食 而傳子傳孫 永爲規例矣
 +
 +
Therefore, we discussed again and bought rice paddies. I distributed two durak of the paddies to each to live on them, and I made it a lasting ordinance to pass them down to descendants.
 +
 +
*Durak 斗落 (Majigi in vernacular Korean) is the amount of land on which one mal (eighteen liters) could be planted as seed. The size of land has varied in different regions. It is approximately 150-300 pyeong (495-990 square meters) for rice paddies and 100 pyeong (330 square meters) for dry fields (Palais, 1996, 364; 1188).
 +
 +
 +
目今奴屬中 或有無去處逃亡者 或有身死後無後者 又或娶良女所生者 及娶他婢所生者
 +
 +
Now, there are slaves as follows: who ran away without any permanent place; who died without leaving any descendants; who married to a commoner woman and their children became commoners; who took another master’s slave as a wife and their children belonged to the master.
 +
 +
 +
不肯使喚 自退契中 還納同畓 則無歸屬處 故上典次知自有前例
 +
 +
All of them would not work for this family, backed out of the compact, and returned the paddies. But since there was no place to return, the owner was supposed to take charge of them according to a precedent.
 +
 +
 +
此後段 汝亦次知 永爲宗家保用之地是旀
 +
 +
From now on, you [my son] will be in charge of them and make them a permanent property of this main house.
 +
 +
 +
且無前戶首處劃給四斗落段 自刱而自罷 則誰禁而誰咎乎
 +
 +
In addition, as for the four durak given to heads of households who were not present before, they were voluntarily pooled and given up, so who could be forbidden and who could be blamed?
 +
 +
 +
曾有奴輩中 不得參分畓時遺漏者二名 而龍世時同處均給爲㫆 *爲㫆: 하며
 +
 +
Earlier there were two slaves who did not take part in the paddy distribution and were left out. They are Yongse and Sidong to whom you ought to distribute the land evenly.
 +
 +
 +
其餘三斗落段 契中次知要用是旀
 +

As for the rest, three durak, they shall belong to the compact land and be used for its need.
