Brown County Wills and Probate Files
Last Will and Testament of H. F. Hall, 1873
I, H. F. Hall of Hiawatha, Brown County, Kansas, do hereby make and publish
this, my last Will and Testament.
1st, I devise and bequeath to my wife, E. B. Hall, one half of my property,
real and personal and mixed, wherever the same may be found.
2nd, I devise and bequeath to my grand-daughter, Lillie Klinefelter, the
sum of Five Hundred dollars ($500) to be paid to her guardian, if she be
not of age, by my executors upon the settlement of my estate.
3rd, I devise and bequeath the remainder of my property, real, personal and
mixed equally to my children, to wit: William S. Hall, Mrs. E. J. Blair,
Assyra Hall, Sebastian C. Hall and Louis B. Hall, provided that all
advancement of money or property heretofore make to any of my said
children, or which I may hereafter make during my lifetime, shall be
considered as payments to them, as a portion of their share of my estate,
and in the final settlement, such amounts advanced prior to my death shall
be so included that the whole amount received from my estate by each of
my children shall be equal.
I nominate and appoit W. B. Barnett and William S. Hall sole executors of this
my last Will and Testament, and ask the Probate Court to require no security
from them, and I further ask that they be required to file no inventory or
appraisement in the Probate Court, unless they prefer to do so, and that
said executors shall have full power and authority to settle the estate.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand, this 15th day of March,
1873.
(signed) H. F. Hall
