In the Name of God, Amen, I, JOHN TOPPING, being sick of body, but of perfect memory doe make this my last will and Testament. And first, I give and bequeath my soul to God, and my body to the earth; my goods I bestow as followeth. First, I give to my wife Deborah, eighty pounds, the one half out of my stock, the other half out of the household stuff, with my house and lot, and one third of my land at Fairfield, plowing land, meadow and pasture land, during her widowhood. I give to my son, Josiah, all the land at Fairfield excepting six acres, which must be laid out to the water, with four acres in ye new close. I give to my son, John, all my land at Smiths, with the remainder of the new close. I give to my son, Zerobabel, six acres at Fairfield, with my house and lot after his mother's decease or marriage. I give unto my daughters, fifty pounds apiece, with what they have had already. I give to my son Ephraim, twenty pounds; and do order my sons, Josiah and John, to pay as followeth, namely: Josiah, forty pounds, and John, twenty pounds. I likewise give unto my sons, John and Zerobabel, all my lands at Quaqua and at Hog Neck. I give to my son Josiah, one fifty (of Commonage) and John, my other fifty. I give my clothing to my son John, excepting my cloak which I give to Josiah. Moreover, I doe appoint my loving friend, Mr. Peregrine Stanborough, and my loving brother, Elnathan Topping, overseers of this my will. I doe make my sons, Josiah and John, my whole and sole executors of this my last will and Testament.
