In the name of God, Amen.
I, Andrew Glenn Sr., of the county of Muhlenberg & state of Kentucky, being sick and weak in body but of sound mind and disposing memory (for which I thank God) and calling to mind the uncertainty of human life and being desirous to dispose of all such wordly estate as it hath pleased God to bless me with, I give and bequeath the same in manner followering, that is to say.
First I give to my son Robert Glenn ten shillings & six pence to him and his heirs forever.
Secondly, I give to my son Henry F. Glenn ten shillings and six pence to him & his heirs forever.
Thirdly, I give to my son Thomas F. Glenn ten shillings and six pence to him & his heirs forever.

Lastly, I do hereby constitute & appoint my two sons Henry F. Glenn and Moses F. Glenn executors to this my last will and testament, hereby revoking all other or former wills or testaments by me heretofore made.
In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and affixed my seal, this 30th day of June 1824.
