I, Mordecai Bean do make and publish this my last will and testament hereby revoking and making void all other wills by me at any time made. First. I desire that my funeral expenses and all my just debts be paid as soon after my death as possible, out of any money that I may die possessed of or may first come into the hands of my Executor. Secondly. I give and bequeath to my wife Katharine Bean all my household and kitchen furniture, stock of all kinds, my plantation and all its appurtenances, all the grain and forage, together with everything that I possess, during her life with full privilege to sell and use the same to pay any debts that may be owing, or for her support and all other legal purposes. I have heretofore given to all my children what I allowed them, unless there should be something remain (sic) after my wife's death, which (is to) be equally divided among my children. Lastly. I do hereby nominate and appoint my wife Katharine Bean my executrix and that without giving any security. In witness whereof I do to this my last will set my hand and seal. This 11th day of March, 1853.
