"To son David all the notes I have against him, my silver watch and 30 dollars, besides the household goods that I have given him. To son Samuel that farm whereon he now dwells which I bought of Samuel Gray, called the Carr farm and also the farm I bought of Oliver Hillard bounded west on the highway, south on Andrew Taylor, east on the northeast corner of the Andrew Taylor land with all the buildings and blacksmith tools and bellows. To each of my daughters; Susannah Earl, Priscilla Earl, Mary Brownell and Anna Pearce 30 dollars each; to daughter Betsey Hoxie 30 dollars, she being a widow. To them all my household goods. To grandson William Hillard, son of my son Jonathan, deceased, all my homestead farm except lot I gave to son Samuel. To grandson Benone Hillard, son of Jonathan, deceased, 300 dollars. To daughter Susannah Hillard, wife of Jonathan, deceased, use of my great chamber and my pew in the meeting house. I give my black woman, Kate her freedom after my decease. To son Samuel the rest and residue and he to take care of Kate if she needs it . . . ."
