kind Providence has blessed me. I therefore make this my last Will and 
Testament, hereby revoking and annulling all others heretofore made by me.

like manner, suitable to my circumstances and condition. My Soul I trust shall 
return to rest with God who gave it, As I hope for eternal salvation through 
the blessed Lord and Savior Jesus Christ whose religion I have professed, and I 
humbly trust have enjoyed for forty years.

my Executor hereinafter named.

Item third give and devise to my daughter, Penelope CONE wife of Archibald CONE

CASON, Jonathan H. BAKER and Mary BAKER the children of Blake H. BAKER each 
twenty dollars.

Item fifth desire and request that my bed, bed clothing and cloaths (sic) 
should remain in and belong to the family with which I may be living at the 
time of my decease.

Item Sixth The rest of my property both real and personal wherever and whatever 
it may be, I devise and bequeath to my son Joseph HARRISON, my daughter Pheroby 
MCKINNON wife of John McKINNON, my daughter Sarah HURST widow of James HURST 
deceased, and my son Jonathan BAKER to be equally divided between them share 
and share alike.

last will and testament this 3rd day of April 1852.
