In re
      MARTIN PHILLIPS.       DECEASED.

I, Martin Phillips, merchant, of Twillingate, in the northern district of the Island of Newfoundland, being of sound mind and memory, do make and publish this my last Will and Testament thereby revoking all other wills heretofore made by me.
1^st. I give, devise, and bequeath unto my wife, Dorcas Phillips, and my daughter Maggie Anstey, nee Phillips, all my interest in the Union Trading Company, and all the money I may die possessed of, together with such other monies as may be derived from the sale of any property of mine after my death, to be used co-jointly for their support and maintenance. But in the event of my wife dying before my said daughter, then all my money unexpended by my said wife and my daughter is to become the property of my said daughter, for her maintenance and support, and after both my wife and my daughter's death, my grandchildren, Lott and Martin are to have all my property. And all my daughter's children are to have all my money, equally divided amongst them, after the death of my wife and daughter.
2^nd. I give and devise unto my beloved wife, Dorcas, and my daughter, Maggie, my dwelling house, furniture, chattels, and storehouses, and shop and stock in trade, and all my land, for their sole use and benefit. My said wife, however, is to have full control of my dwelling house and household furniture, as long as she lives; but, after her death, my said dwelling house and furniture, together with all other property is to become the property of my daughter, Maggie.
3^rd. I direct my said wife to sell all my interest in my fishing property, of whatever kind, viz: my interest in half of two cod-traps and gear, and one third of one trap motor-boat, skiffs and punts; and all money accruing from the sale of the same is to be deposited in the bank, to the credit of my wife, to be disposed of according to the preceding sections of this my last will and Testament.
Lastly, I hereby nominate and appoint my wife, Dorcas Phillips and my daughter, Maggie Anstey, nee Phillips, to be joint executrices of this my last Will and Testament.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand, this 15^th day of March in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and twenty-six.

CODICIL;
Whereas I, Martin Phillips, did on the 15^th day of March in the year of Our Lord nineteen hundred and twenty-six, make my last Will and Testament, I do now by this writing add this codicil to my Will to be taken as part thereof:-
1^st. I give and bequeath unto my wife, Dorcas Phillips, my gold watch and chain, and to my daughter, Maggie, my organ.
2^nd. I do now decree that my wife shall have all my property for her use, as long as she lives. And, if my wife is in need, either my daughter, Maggie, or her husband, is to contribute towards the support of my said wife, and in consideration thereof my daughter is to have the remainder of my property at the death of my wife. If, however, my said daughter, or her husband, fails or refuses to properly contribute towards the support of my wife, whilst she remains my widow. Then my said wife dispose of such of my estate as she may need for her support and maintenance.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 15^th day of March A.D. nineteen hundred and twenty-six.
MARTIN PHILLIPS.
