Georgia Glynn County

I, John R. Fahm, of the County and State aforesaid, being of sound mind and 
disposing memory, do make and publish this as my last will and testament, 
hereby revoking and annulling all others by me previously made.

Item 1:  It is my desire and I hereby direct that my body be buried in a 
Christian like manner, suitable to my circumstances and condition in life.

Item 2:  It is also my desire and I hereby direct that all my just debts be 
promptly paid by my Executrix, hereinafter appointed, out of my insurance, my 
insurance I believe being sufficient to take care of an pay all indebtedness, 
without selling any of my property for that purpose.

Item 3:  I give, devise and bequeath, unto my beloved wife, Mrs. Frances 
Vinson Gelow Fahm, all of my property, or every kind and character, wherever 
situate, unconditionally, she and I having no children and I have no other 
legal heirs.

Item 4:  I hereby name and appoint my beloved wife, Mrs. Frances Vinson Gelow 
Fahm, as my sole and only executrix, of this my last will and testament, and 
confer upon her full and complete power as such to fully and completely 
administer upon my said estate, and excuse or relieve her from the giving of 
any bond or the making of any returns to the Court of Ordinary, or the making 
of any reports thereto about said estate, and expressly confer upon her full 
power and authority to sell or encumber, any part thereof for any purpose, at 
either public or private sale and without the giving of any notice for that 
purpose, making good and sufficient conveyance or conveyances thereof unto the 
purchaser or purchasers thereof.

Item 5:  My beloved wife Mrs. Frances Vinson Gelow Fahm, may from time to 
time, after my death, need advice as to what to do and how to handle said 
estate or some matter connected therewith, and I hereby direct and it is my 
desire that she consult or confer with my friends Mr. C.T. Calnan and R.C. 
Lindsay, both of whom I am certain will gladly advise her in all matters 
pertaining to my estate without charge.

Item 6:  Being satisfied that my insurance will be ample to pay off all 
indebtedness against my estate at my death, it is my desire and I hereby 
direct my beloved wife Mrs. Frances Vinson Gelow Fahm, not to sell or encumber 
my farm and live stock in the Sterling settlement, for any purpose, but hold 
and keep the same for her home after I am gone.  I have several times told my 
wife who I owed and the amounts I owe and she is familiar with all that and 
should have very little trouble paying them off out of the insurance money I 
leave.

This the 11th day of August 1928.
