WILL of ADDIE M. SMITH
Probated September 5, 1936

Know all Men By These Presents that I, ADDIE M. SMITH of Dyer County, State
of Tennessee, being of sound and good understanding and knowing the uncertainty
of this life and the certainty of death and being desirous of disposing of what little
affects that I am possessed of, do make this my Last Holy and Graphic Will.

First: I suggest that all my honest debts be paid out of the first money that comes into
the hands of my executor. I will name my nephew SAM CRENSHAW as executor.

Of such expect to have my burial fund extra from the amount named for the three,
SMITH CRENSHAW, MORRIS A. CRENSHAW and MRS. JOHN THOMAS.
I give and bequeath to my nephew. SAM H. CRENSHAW fifty dollars of my checking
account. If there is any more of the checking account that goes to SMITH T.
CRENSHAW, MORRIS A. CRENSHAW and MRS. JOHN THOMAS. I give
and bequeath my nephew SAM H. CRENSHAW the old home place at my death
and a hundred dollars from my checking account (checking account).

ADDIE M. SMITH
AM SMITH

First Citizens -- Dyersburg Tenn

The amount this calls for want equally divided between THOMAS MORRIS
CRENSHAW, SOPHIE KATE CRENSHAW, SMITH CRENSHAW. SAM gets
the home place and 50 dollars from my checking account.

Hope there will no hard feelings for if was I sure would hate it.
ADDIE M. SMITH

everything to be fair or she would hate it. Hope it helps someone)
