Executors.
Secondly I give and bequeath to my beloved wife one hundred dollars in money and house and farm where I now live as much as she may wish to work and a ??? tools that she may choose.
Also all the negroes that I may have, household kitchen furniture, all the balance of my lands rented or sold as may seam best by my Executors; all other loose property; as it is my wish for my estate to be equally divided between all my children; as I have kept accounts of what each child has received of my estate with this my will! And when my executors I wish them to prove this to be my handwrite;
Lastly I do hereby nominate and appoint my four oldest sons my executors or any two of them. David Jefferson, Moses Lancaster (sic: actual will written "Larasee,") Daniel Hollis and John Lewis, September 1837
