Will*I, Thomas Day of Springfield, in the County of Hampshire within her Majest's province of the Massachusetts Bay in New England .having by God's good hand of providence unto me attained to old age and being in daily expectation of my dissolution ; yet through God's mercy towards me in ye enjoyment of a competent measure of health and in perfect memory, have thought good to make, appoint and constitute, this my last will and testament; hereby abrogating and nulling all other wills and testaments. And .first I do give and bequeath my soul to God, my most merciful Father in Jesus Christ, hoping by ye merit of his Son my Saviour that I shall obtain eternal redemption and the forgiveness of my sins for his sake ; and that my departing soul shall be received into the arms of his everlasting mercy, being pardoned by the blood of my most dear Redeemer and Saviour, and sanctified by his Holy Spirit, to enjoy everlasting happiness in the kingdom of glory, forevermore. And my body I do commit to the earth, there to rest till the resurrection at which time I firmly believe I shall obtain the resurrection of my dead body and reunion of my immortal soul and so to live with Christ .to all eternity.

And as to that portion of outward estate which God hath been pleased to bless me withal, I do hereby dispose of in manner following :

let. I do give unto Sarah my well-beloved wife, in case she survive and outlive me, the improvement of all my whole estate .both lands and movea-bles to be for her comfort and maintainance so long as she shall continue in the estate of widowhood and bear my name, together alsoe with all the income of my estate in my son Jonathan's hand; that so she may be comfortably provided for. And further I do give unto my beloved wife aforesaid one third part of the moveable estate to be at her own dispose, according as she shall see convenient.

2dly. I do give unto my son Thomas Day all my woolen wearing Clothes dfter my decease together with my best H'att.

3dly. I do give unto my son Samuel Day my lower lot in the Neck over the Great River, containing two acres more or less and alsoe one third part of my land in the piece called Asbquenunseck Week over the Great River aforesaid : moreover one fourth part ot the Meadow called the World's End, the whole being ten acres.

4thly. I do give to my son John Day my upper lot in ye Neck containing two acres more or less and one third part of my land in Asquenunseck aforesaid, the whole being twenty three acres and alsoe one fourth part of my land at the place called the World's End aforesaid.

5thly. I do give unto my son Ebenezer Day three acres and a half of land in the plain above End Brook, being the whole of my land in that place : and alsoe four acres of land lying upon the hill lying between the lands of James Warriner, Jun. and William Warriner ; only provided that if my son Jonaathan Day see cause to pay unto my son Ebenezer Day nine pounds cash within the space of two years after the decease of myself or wife which shall last happen that then the aboves'd four acres of land on the hill shall be his. Further, I do give unto my son Ebenezer one third part of my land in Asquenunseck Neck, he having his choice which side of the lot to take the land : and also one fourth part of my land at the World's End Meadow.

6thly. I do give to my son Jonathan Day six acres of land lying on the back side of my pasture on Garden Brook and one fourth part of my land at ye World's End, he having his choice which side of the land to take it, and alsoe all my rights in the Outward Commons.

7thly. I do give unto my three daughters Sarah Burt, Mary Mirick and Abigail Warriner, that is to say to each daughter particularly the sum of nine pounds apiece as money to be paid out of the moveables if it hold out so much and what overplus there may happen to he in the moveables more than to pay the daughters their respective portions, to be equally divided among all my children. It is to be understood that all the improveable lands in my estate be improved by my son Jonathan according to covenant and agreement with him so long as either myself or wife shall continue and then the will to take place. And further wh.it moneys shall happen to be in the house at my decease, I give unto my well-beloved wife for her supply and maintenance, if God so order that shee survive and that my funeral charges and what other debts may happen, to be paid out of the estate. And whereas 1 have twentv six acres of land granted to me on the south side of Agawam River, I do give the same to my two sons Samuel and John Day.

I being very desirous to maintain love and unanimity among my children, if any of them shall go about to break my will, they shall forfeit their respective portions. And I do hereby order and appoint my well-beloved wife executrix and my two sons John Day and John Mirick executors to this my last will and testament. And to the confirmation of these presents I have hereto set my hand and seal this 29th day of May, 1711.
