division to take place between all my children. And I do further will &
ordain that Samuel Wilson & Thomas Jones of said County be appointed
as my Executor to settle my business after my death and I do request that
the said Wilson & Jones will manage my property as they think best
to Settle my just debts. In Witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand
