In the name of God, Amen:  I, Alexander Grant, being weak in body but of sound 
memory, blessed be God for it, do this day make and publish this my last will 
and testament in manner and form following, (viz.):
First, m will and desire is that all and singular my property whatsoever 
should be equally divided among my six children to wit: Heneritty (Henrietta?) 
Grant, John Grant, Bazel Grant, Betsey Grant, William Grant, and Anny Grant,

dollars more than any or each of the rest.  The Negro boy Onslow that I lent 
to my daughter Heneritty Grant, I desire should be considered as my property
