Summary/Abstract: Ioan Boguszláwszki and Ștefan Kriscsóry reported, following Maria Theresa’s order from March 13, 1775 issued in Târgu Mureș, on a law case of property between count Adam Teleki of Szék and Catharina, his sister on his mother’s side, married to Wolphgang Rhédei of Kis Rhéde, through examination of witnesses according to the rule in such causes. The two reporters noted down the whole examination of witnesses that took part into Romanian, in the house of count Teleki’s bound Dregan Gheorghe; the rapport provides both precious data on toponyms and anthroponyms in the village of Vaca, and on the administrative and judicial system in the 18th century.
