    HARTFORD, SS.

    Wethersfield, 17 April, 1750.
    John Welles the 2nd, Ebenezer Griswold and Jacob Dix, all personally appeared before me the subscriber and made oath that in the night next after the 15th day of April inst., being at the dwelling house of James Miller, late of sd. Wethersfield decd., they heard the sd. Miller declare, some hours before his death, that it was his will that his then wife Eunice should have all the estate that she brought when they married together.
