I Thomas Frohock being in a weak state of body but of sound and disposing mind and memory do make this my last will and testament. In the first place My will and pleasure is all my just debts due by bond note on account and of not more than three years shall be paid and that all debts due by note account parole [--- ] against which the Statute of Limitations can be pleaded my executors hereafter named are expressly directed to plead said statutes. Because I have been treated in the same manner by the rest of the world. And my Will and pleasure further is all the real and personal estates whereof I am possessed after the payment of all just debts of the above description be vested in my son Alexander Frohock, except such real and personal property that I have heretofore given to my Daughter Mrs. Hunt wife of Charles Hunt, and which I now give to her or her children and what I have hitherto given to the said Charles Hunt. I lend to my daughter Elizabeth Hunt a Negro girl named Cile, daughter of Jack, and during the life of the said Elizabeth under this express limitation to wit that the two first born children of the said Negro Cile shall belong to Thomas, son of the said Elizabeth and her next to children to Sally Hunt, daughter of my daughter Elizabeth and the residue of the increase of the said Negro Cile to be equally divided between such other children as the said Elizabeth may hereafter have and at the death of the said Elizabeth the said Negro Cile shall belong to the said Thomas and Sally, children of the said Charles Hunt and Elizabeth. And I do hereby constitute and appoint the reverend Samuel McCorkle, Anthony Newman and Alexander Long and Spruce Macay executors of this my last will and testament and I further add the above executors my friend Maxwell Chambers. I hereby revoke all former wills and testaments by me and in witness thereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 26th day of February 1794. Signed, Tho. Frohock Witnesses: Henry Giles, Jr., Wm.
