In the name of God Amen I Daniel Stanly of the County of Jones and State
of North Carolina seriously considering the uncertainty of life and mindful
of the obligation upon every man to have his affairs in order do make and
ordain this my last will and testament as follows viz
Imprimis It is my wish that after my death my executor herein after named
should liquidate and pay all my just debts
Item, I give to my son Daniel C. Stanly all the rest and residue of my
property after my just debts are consisting at the time of my death money
notes, stocks, household and kitchen furniture or property of every
description whatsoever to be left immediately to his possession without
any sale (except at his own option) or without any reservation on account
of his being underage to him his heirs and assigns forever
And lastly I nominate and appoint my said son Daniel C. Stanly executor to
this my last will and testament revoking all other will by me made heretofore
And finally I commit my soul and body to that Being who gave them me firmly
believing that he will raise me again at the great last day and if found
worthy will give me a glorious immortality
