Scope and Contents

Wants her to have the wardrobe when she dies; Nan is closer to her than her [AFM] sisters Harriet and Sarah are; also gives her all the items in the wardrobe; has given all the jewelry to Mary H. Maury [Matthew's daughter?] that she plans to givel they wishes they had known what her [AFM] father's first wife [Harriet Mytton Hughes Maury] had wanted done wither belongings when she died; made her own will then, at the age of 21; distribution of her books; is not feeling as though she is going to die, but Walker's two fits made her think of the uncertainty of earthly things; asked Uncle Rutson to remake his will with regard to her [AFM] property; may remake her will, but not until Rutson does; all her property is left to her brothers, and after them to her nieces; since some of her [AFM] brothers are so poor that she would like to leave them something; if Rutson does not make a new will and she leaves hers as it is, she would like her, Harriet, and Sarah to be kind to Tobin; he has been difficult at times, but she thinks he has had more of a child's love for her than any of them. 4pp ALS
