Buzzacott, of Glynn County, Georgia, being of sound mind and disposing memory, do make, publish and declare this as my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all other Wills heretofore made by me. ITEM ONE I direct that my body be buried in a decent and Christian manner and that my funeral expenses and all my just debts owing at my death shall be promptly paid. ITEM TWO I hereby declare and acknowledge that my only heirs at law are my brother, CHARLES KIDWELL BUZZACOTT, of Weymouth, Dorset, England; and my sisters, JESSIE NEWTON, of Manchester, Lancashire, England, and NORAH BUZZACOTT, of Weymouth, Dorset, England. ITEM THREE I have intentionally, and not as a result of any accident, mistake or inadvertence failed in this Will and Testament to provide by devise or bequest for any of my aforesaid heirs at law, as I feel they are in ample circumstance and are not in need of any part of my small estate. ITEM FOUR I give, devise and bequeath all of my property, of whatsoever kind or character, whether real, personal or mixed, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, of wheresoever situate, and including any lapsed legacy or devise of personalty or realty, to STAFFORD WILLIAM BURNEY, of Glynn County, Georgia, who was born March 4, 1941, if he be living at the time of my death.

WALLIE K. BURNEY, mother of Stafford William Burney, who has been so kind, helpful and considerate to me during my lifetime in Glynn County, Georgia. ITEM SIX I hereby nominate STAFORD H. BURNEY as Executor of this Will. In the event that he predeceases me or fails or refused to qualify or serve, or after qualifying should die or resign, then I name as Successor Executrix MRS. WALLIE K. BURNEY (wife of Stafford H. Burney), and the said Successor Executrix shall have all the powers, privileges, rights and exemptions hereinafter conferred upon my Executor. ITEM SEVEN My said Executor may, while acting in his capacity hereunder, from time to time and as he may think necessary or deem best, in his sole judgment and discretion, exchange or sell any property, real or personal, either at public or private sale, at such prices and places, upon such terms and with or without advertisement, as he may think necessary or deem best, without previously procuring the order of any court authorizing him so to do; may invest and reinvest the proceeds of any sale, or funds derived from any other sources, in any other property, real or personal, that he may deem best, regardless of whether or not the subject of such investment be of the character permitted by law to trustees or executors; may hold in the same form or investment any property, real or personal, of which I may died possessed, may borrow money or renew any loans made by me and give security for repayment thereof by mortgage, deed of trust, loan deed or otherwise; may lease any property for any time, regardless of the duration of the administration of my estate. I further relieve my Executor from giving bond and making any return or inventory to any court whatsoever. ITEM EIGHT Should any beneficiary named herein die in the court of or as a direct result of the same accident, epidemic ro other calamity as shall cause my death, then I give and bequest or devise allotted to him to such persons and in such manner and proportions as the same would have been taken under the terms of this Will if such beneficiary had died before me. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my signature and seal to this my Last Will and Testament on this the 19th day of April 1950.
