Therefore calling to mind the mortality of my body, and knowing that it is appointed for all men once to die, Do make and ordain this my last Will and Testament, that is to say and principally and first of all I give and recommend it to the earth to be buried in a Christian and decent manner, at the Discretion of my executors, nothing doubting but at the General Resurrection at the Last Day, I shall receive the same again by the mighty power of God. As touching such worldly estate wherewith it hath pleased God to bless me, in this life 1 Give, Bequeath, Devise and Dispose of the same in the following manner and Form. Item, I Give and Bequeath unto my Dearly Beloved wife Martha De Bonrepos for her Dowery, fifty pounds, to be entirely at her Disposal. Item, I give unto her as addition to the Dowry, first the three pounds conditioned as it will appear by the Bonds. Second a negro woman called Tenah and her daughter called Sarah, which is at Jacob Bibyous ; thirdly, for her maintenance she shall have and receive so long as she shall remain a widow the interest of all my bonds, that shall be due to me at my decease ; and for my other negro wench, named Judde, and her child called Elizabeth, I give the child Elizabeth to my wife, and the mother of the child Judde I give unto my Heir named hereafter. I give unto my said wife and to her own use and Disposal, all my household goods, excepting a silver Tankard and a silver cup. I give and Bequeath to Mr. John Lafort of New York the sum of forty pounds. Item, I give and Bequeath unto Blanchard De Bonrepos, wife to Henry Chaden of New Rochelle, thirty pounds.
