Viz I give & bequeath unto my uncle William Turner of Marian South Carolina the whole of my real & personal Estate. Also I do constitute James Gould Esquire of the aforesaid Island of St. Simons, planter to be sole Executor of this my last will & testament. Item I bequeath unto James White Executor of my fathers Estate the sum of Ten Dollars or so much as will enable him to purchase himself a shive[?] board, Thimble, needle & goose, deeming him far more fitter to have the management of them than Estates. Item to Mrs. Eunice Whittimore of Coventry in the State of Connecticut, I leave the sum of twenty Dollars to purchase a ring as a token of my regards. Item if any Physician of the county in which I die wishes to have my body for dissection it must be delivered him it may constitute a mile towards the advancement of the Science of anatomy. In Witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 25th day of April & Year of our Lord One thousand Eight hundred & nineteen. William Turner Signed Sealed, published & declared by the above named William Turner to be his last will and Testament in the presence of us, who at his request & in his presence have hereunto subscribed our names as witnesses to the same.
