I give to my son John forty shillings to be paid out of my [wearing or weaving.] - I do confirm to my several sons the deeds of gift I have formerly made to them, of my lands to them and their heirs. Item. I give to my son William and to his heirs my three acre lot in the Long meadow. I give to my son Joseph my teame, with all the appurtenances thereunto belonging. Item. All the rest of my moveable estate not before given, I give to my daughters equally to be divided among them, only my daughter Sarah shall have the value of four pounds more than either of her sisters.
