The last Will and Testament of Henry Williamson.

I, Henry Williamson being of sound memory and discretion but of feeble health, and desirous of putting my earthly affairs in shape do hereby make and publish this my last Will and Testament, revoking all other Wills by me heretofore made.

I give to my wife Catherine Williamson all of my property of every description, both personal and real estate. I appoint my said wife Catherine Williamson the executrix of my Will, without bond or security, and when she has paid my just debts and funeral expenses. She is at perfect liberty to do as she sees proper with all of my property, she having labored faithfully with me in making and saving what I have.
