sound mind) and would terminate in death I requested him to make any wish he
had known as to the disposition of his property and the raising of his
children and he stated that he wished his debts paid first and after that he
wished his wife to have the farm and all the real and personal property to
enable her to raise the children which property was to be her for the above
purpose during her widowhood
