Will:
In the name of God Amen. I Milton Young of the county of Smith and state of Tennessee being old and far advised (advanced?) in life and somewhat [ ? ] but sound in mind and memory for which I think calling to mind the uncertainty of
human life and being [ ? ] to [ ? ] of all such worldly goods as the Lord has been pleased to bless me with do make this my last will and testament in the manner and form following (that is) first I commission my soul to God who give it and my body to be buried in a decent Christian like manner at home in my own burying ground by my two sons and
