I also give my daughter-in-law, Martha Pollard, the wife of George M.

At the death of my daughter, Mary, the other one third of what I have given to her to go to the children she now has or hereafter may have by her second marriage. I give to my son, Joseph H.

I wish the said negro Green to be valued by my friends, Thomas Ogburn, S.L. Garrard and A. G. Brown, and I further give my son, Joseph H.

And, I do hereby nominate and name my friend, Thomas Walthal, and my son, Joseph H. Pollard to sell and make deeds and to carry into effect every desire I have here made.
