In an old chest, I found an antique parchment, where just a few words could be made out: "... LOG SALE ... ROD OF ... NOR A RAG ... FLAG AND ...". What could this mean, and what else might I find written on the parchment?

My initial first response was too revealing (I had noted your first response at time note here).

I also believe the said merchant [was this his name or a business motto - ken toil?] had a stock of oranges with level rind.
