I will that all my debts that I in justice owe to
any person or persons be paid out of my estate so soon
as convenient after my decease and being sensible

taining thirty acres lying in that lot of land in the
oblong known and distinguished by No Sixty which

Phelps Reference being had to the deed may more
plainly appear which land is to be disposed of at
the discretion of my Executor. And the residue of my
estate I dispose of in the manner following

ter Jemima Phelps the sum of ten shillings York
money additional to what I have already given

she arrives at the age of eighteen years. And if either of
these children shall die before they arrive at the age

surviving child and if they both die before they arrive
to the age of eighteen years then their estate shall decend
