	IN THE NAME OF GOD, AMEN. I Philip Frick, of the town and county of
Northumberland, in the State of Pennsylvania, being of sound mind, memory, 
and understanding the uncertainty of this transitory life, do make and publish 
this my last WILL and TESTAMENT, in manner and form following to wit:

Principally, and first of all, I commend my immortal soul into the hands of
God who gave it, and my body to the earth, to be buried in a decent and
christian-like manner, at the discretion of my Executors herein after named;
and as to such worldly estate wherewith it hath pleased God to bless me in 
this life, I give an dispose of the same in the following manner to wit:

First, it is my will, and I do order, that all my just debts and funeral
expenses, as soon as conveniently can be after my decease, be duly paid and
satisfied. 

Item, I give and devise unto my dear wife Margaret, all my estate real and 
personal, of what kind or nature soever the same may be, in the county of
Northumberland aforesaid, or elsewhere, the personal estate absolutely, and
the real estate during her natural life; and from and immediately after her
decease, I give and devise my tract of land called "Philipsburg," situate in
Point Township, in the county aforesaid, unto John Montgomery and David
Montgomery, sons of Robert Montgomery of Paradise in the said county, and his
wife Catharine, my daughter, lately deceased, to them the said John and David
and their heirs forever, as tenants in common, and not as joint tenants, if
they shall have attained the age of twenty one years at that time; but if 
only one has attained that age, he shall have his equal half share, and the
other brother shall have his share at his age of twenty one, and if neither
is of full age, each shall have his share as he becomes of full age.  If
either the said John or David die under age, his surviving brother shall have
the whole tract.

I give and devise unto Margaret Montgomery, daughter of the said Robert and 
Catharine, my Lot number 38 in the said town of Northumberland in King Street,
on which is situate the house on which I at present reside, with the 
appurtenances, to her and her heirs forever.

I give and devise my Lot number 25 in the same said town and street, on which
is situate the house in which John King in now lives, with the appurtenances,
unto Catharine Montgomery, daughter of the said Robert and Catharine, and
her heirs forever.

I give and devise my Lot number 221 situate in the same said town on Front
street, now in the tenure of Jason Chapel, with the appurtenances, unto 
Christiana Montgomery, daughter of the said Robert and Catharine Montgomery, 
and her heirs forever. 

I give and devise my Lot number 189 in the said town, on Orange Street,
which I purchased of John Caruthers, with the appurtenances, unto Sarah
Montgomery, daughter of the said Robert and Catharine, and her heirs forever.

The aforesaid several devises to Margaret, Catharine, Christiana, and Sarah
Montgomery, they are to recieve severally, and respectively, when they each 
respectively attain the age of eighteen years, my dear wife Margaret being
deceased; and if either of them die without children before the age of 
eighteen years, her share shall be sold by my Executor, and be equally
divided among her surviving sisters herein before named, as they each of them,
severally attain the said age of eighteen.  

And since the shares of Christiana and Sarah are the least valuable, it is my 
desire, and I order, that, at the time when they are entitled to their several 
and respective devices, my Executor shall pay them severally and equally, the 
amount and produce of the rents, issues and profits which have then arisen 
from all my real estate, from the death of my said wife, or from the time of 
my own decease, if I survive her, until the time that the devices were 
delivered over to or received by, the said Devices, John, David, Margaret,
Catharine, Christiana and Sarah Montgomery respectively; and, if either the
said Christiana or Sarah before she is entitled to her devise, die, her
share of such profits shall go to her sister receiving the othe share.

I except out of the devise to my wife, my large old German Bible, and 
bequeath it to the youngest son of my brother Frederick Frick.

If I survive my said wife, I direct my Executor to sell my personal property,
and after payment of my funeral expenses, and just debts, distribute the
remainder equally among the aforesaid children of Robert and Catharine
Montgomery, as they respectively become entitled to their aboved devised
property, to wit, the sons at the age of twenty one years, and the daughters
at the age of eighteen years.  

I also, in that event, bequeath and give to the said Margaret Montgomery, my
silver Sugar Tongs marked P.F. and my half dozen silver Tea spoons and my
silver cream jug, marked M.F.  And I give and bequeath to the said Catharine
Montgomery, daughter of the said Robert & Catharine, my three silver Table
spoons and silver Cream Jug marked C.F.

And lastly, I nominate, constitute and appoint my friend Jacob Dendler, and
my dear wife Margaret, aforesaid, to be the Executors of this my WILL, hereby
revoking all other wills and legacies, by me heretofore made and declaring
this and no other to be my last WILL and TESTAMENT.  

In witness whereof,I, the said Philip Frick, have hereunto set my hand and
seal the eigteenth day of March in the year of our Lord one thousand eight
hundred and six.

Signed, sealed, published, pronounced	}
