This recorder's handwriting was a challenge!  I'm not sure I've transcribed all correctly.
Some of the words can be discerned by comparing this deed with the deed for when it
was sold 5 Jan 1789.

Note that "f" is the old style of writing for the letter "s" and sometimes for double "ss."
Quite a few abbreviations were used  - where "sd" means "said" and so on.
