NONCUPATIVE WILL OF JAMES CRUTCHFIELD, DECD.

I am going to die and I want Nancy and the children to have a years support.  They cant attend to my Horse I want him and my mule sold.  I want Nancy to have a horse for it is right she should have one.  I want part of my land sold and I want Nancy and the children to live on the balance of the land if they see proper and I don't want them deprived of the house & orchard at any time.  I want my Mother to have my corn here.  She has some claims against me and I think that will about suffice.  I want the years support for Nancy and the children to come out of the rent corn on my place

The foregoing nuncupative will was made by James Crutchfield on the 28^th of August 1854 on the day he died in our presence and in the presence of his mother this 5^th day of Sept 1854.
