I, Lamrock Flowers of Hartford, do make this my last will and testament: My will is that my honest and just debts be paid, and that such a parcell of land at the west end of my lott as will make the mony be sold and the mony be raised and paid without delay. And then the party who buyeth this land, if a stranger, will want a way to it. My will is that a driftway of ten foot wide, on the north side next Cadwell, from the highway to it, be reserved, the buyer and my children or successors to maintain the fence of this driftway equally according to their number of acres, so many rods as may fall out to one another when calculated by the number of acres. I give to my son Lamrock all that hath been due me or mine towards the building of his house, and the acre lot it standeth on, (he) maintaining the fence against our land. What land is left, to be divided equally among my 4 sons after my wife's marriage or decease; but whilst my wife remaineth my widow it shall be at her dispose, to let and sett as seemeth her good, to bring up those children who are yet under age. That whatsoever the moveables amounteth to when apprised, whosoever taketh them shall pay to my daughters the value thereof what in all can be made, the 2 younger (Mary and Ann) to have two-thirds, the other two older (Lydia and Elizabeth) to have one-third part, but not until their mother's marriage or decease; the other to Mary and Ann at my wife's discretion. I make my wife sole executrix.
