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 
In testimony whereof I hereunto set my hand and seal this 11th day of 
December A. D. 1834
                                  Daniel Stanley
