  In the name of God Amen!

I Phoebe Clancy of the Town of Hillsborough and the State of North Carolina do
make and publish this as my last will and testament, hereby revoking all other
wills made by me:

I give and devise to Rosannah Thompson colored woman all my right and title to
the House and land attached to it, which my sister Frances Thompson by her will
devised to her, lying on the south bank of the Eno River.

I hereby devise and confirm to all persons, all lands, which they have bought
from my sister Frances Thompson, and have paid for, and have deeds for.

I also confirm all sales and contracts of sales, of land, which she made, where
the title has not yet been completed, upon the parties fulfilling their part of
the contracts.

I devise and dedicate to the Public, as a public road, twenty feet wide, the
road leading from the head of the ravine on the Raleigh Road at Judge Manly’s
westward to Thompson’s Mill, on the Chapel Hill Road.

I give and devise to Edward Cooley, infant son of Charles S. Cooly the ground
which his father bought from me on the North East corner of my Town Lot at the
price of $125 – but has only paid me $25, and I revoke the sale not having made
him a deed, and he is to release to Edward all his claim to said lot as a
condition of this devise.

I give and devise to my nephew Walter A. Thompson all the residue of my property
of every sort real and personal; and I earnestly enjoin it upon him so to use
it, and keep it, that it may afford him a comfortable support for the remainder
of his life.

I appoint my friend William A. Norwood executor of this my will and I give him
full power to sell at public or private sale any portion of my estate real or
personal, which can be *** conveniently spared (in case it shall be necessary to
sell anything) in order to carry out, and settle up, either my own estate or
that of my sister Frances Thompson deceased.

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 1st day of June 1870.

Phoebe Clancy (her mark)

Signed sealed and published in the presence of,

Witnesses

I Phoebe Clancy being of sound mind do hereby revoke in my will above the
appointment of William G. Norwood as my executor in consequence of his removal
from this State; and I do hereby appoint Thomas Webb of Hillsborough my executor
with the same authority and power given in my will to said Wm G. Norwood.

I do also add to the clause of my said will in fourth item, in favor of Edward
Cooley, as is therein written.

And in all other respects I do confirm and republish the said will with this
codicil to be my last will and testament.

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this the 8th day of
October 1872.

Phoebe Clancy (her mark)
