In the name of God Amen, I Levi Eure Sr., of the County of Gates in the State

and calf which she has already in possession.

and calf which she has in possession.

Dollars to her and her heirs forever. I give the balance of my estate if any

forever.
I hereby nominate and appoint my two daughters, Mary Ann Eure and Nancy Eure,

Last Will and Testament set my hand and seal this day and date first above 
written.
