I, Robert Glenn, of Muhlenberg County State of Kentucky, being of sound mind and memory, do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be my last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills by me at any time heretofore made.
First, I order and direct my executors as soon after my decease as practicable, to pay off and discharge all the just debts, dues and liabilities that may exist against me at the time of my decease.
Second, I give and bequeath unto my wife Hannah E. Glenn all the property owned and left by me at my death of every kind, real, personal and mixed to be owned and held by her during her lifetime.
Third, having heretofore given unto my son Moses R. Glenn, a horse, a cow and calf, bedding and three hundred dollars in money and various other things, I give and bequeath unto him one dollar to be paid out of my estate.
Third, having hereunto given my daughter Martha A. Cundiff, wife of John R. Cundiff, a horse, a cow and calf, and bedding and some other things, I give and bequeath unto her five dollars to be paid out of my estate, and in addition to the aforesaid amounts and articles, I give and bequeath unto the bodily heirs of said Martha A. Cundiff if any she has, the sum of two hundred dollars to be equally divided among said heirs should there be more than one, said sum shall be paid by my sons A.H. Glenn and W.E. Glenn, out of my estate when the oldest of said heirs becomes sixteen years of age provided said John R. Cundiff is not then living and if he be living it shall be paid to them as they become twenty-one years of age. If there be but one heir of said Martha A. Cundiff, the entire sum two hundred dollars shall be paid to him or her when he or she becomes sixteen years of age provided said John R. Cundiff be not living and if he be living then said sum shall be paid to said heir when he or she becomes of age. Should said Martha A. Cundiff die with [out] issue then said sum shall be equally divided between my sons A.H. Glenn and W.E. Glenn. And in no event shall they be required to pay any interest in said money.

Sixth, I give and bequeath unto my son A.H. Glenn one half of all the property owned by me at my death, real, personal and mixed, including money and notes, that I have at my death not herein before bequeathed.
Seventh, The conditions of this will are that all my property of all kinds shall be held by my wife Hannah E. Glenn during her lifetime.
Eight, I hereby nominate and appoint my sons A.H. Glenn and W.E. Glenn to be executors of my estate and to serve as such executors without giving bond.
