In the Name of God Amen.  I, Stewart Hamilton, of
Montgomery County and State of Georgia, being of sound
and perfect mind and memory, do this fourteenth day of
January, eighteen hundred and twenty- four, make this
my last will and testament.  That is to say, first, I
give and bequeath after my death all of my property
that I now possess and the increase of it to my beloved
wife, Clarry Hamilton, if she should live longer than
me, and at her decease she can give the property to
such of my children as she pleases.  I will all to her.
I give my children no part of my property except one
dollars worth to each one of them is all I give them.
This my last will and testament.  In witness whereof
the said Steward Hamilton has hereunto set my hand and
signed, sealed, published and declared in presence of
all.
