In the Name of God, Amen. l , James Hunter, of Black Lick Township, Indiana Co., and
State of Pennsylvamia, being advanced in age, and not very well, but of sound mind,  and
calling to mind my mortality, with my own hand and pen, I wright my last will and
testament.
In the first place, I bequeath my soul to the hands of God, who gave it, in hope of a
blessed  immortality beyond the grave
Next, I bequeath to my wife our bed and bedding, one cow, six chairs, one cupboard, and
one falling leaf table, together with all the kitchen furniture, our room upstairs, and share
of the kitchen, and likewise a share  of the other part of the house  as long as she remains
my widow. In short, I allow her a decent living.
In the next place, I bequeath to David F. Hunter, my youngest son, the farm on which I
now live, with all the farming utensils, wagon and windmill, and all the cattle, sheep, and
hogs, with exception of his mothers cow, and the said David Hunter is to pay  all my
debt.
In the next place, it is my will that my son, William Hunter, have his living on the farm
so long as he works  peaceably with David. Further, if the said William should in the
course of  time  become sick or enfeebled , so as not to be able to work or make a living
for himself, the farm is bound to keep him.
In the next place, I bequeath to Mathew, Margaret, James, Mary, and Marthew fifteen
dollars apiece , and to John and Jane each of them one dollar which the said David  is to
have a reasonable time  after his parents death  to pay the several sums.
It is my will that David be my executor.
The burow and clock is to be my wifes.
The book case, Davids. The books to be equally divided  among the children after their
parents death. James is to have my close.
