The slaveholder named Maria de Guarco purchases insurance against the risk of death from childbirth from the underwriter Imperiale Grillo for an enslaved woman named Maddalena , who is approximately 38 years of age and about eight months pregnant, for 150 Genoese lire. The term of the insurance is three months. Maria is absent during the transaction and is represented by the enacting notary Tommaso Duracino.
