And as to the place I now live upon, I give my wife the improvement of it so long as she is pleased to live upon it, and my interest shall hold good. If she move, then my interest to Samuel. My right of land in Sharon not already laid out I order my executors to dispose of for the payment of my obligations to the Country. I give all the overplus to my wife and my son Samuel, only I oblige them to reward Capt. Dunham for his service and help.
