WHEREAS in & by the sd. last W. & T. I gave and devised to James Pullen and Elizabeth McClanahan, widow of my son, William McClanahan, dec'd, each fifty a. of land as described in the sd. last W. & T. Now I do hereby revoke and annull said devisees and bequests & do hereby declare that my will is and I hereby devise the sd. fifty acres of land as described in the sd. last will & testament (and therein devised to James Pullen) to Elizabeth McClanahan, widow and relict of my son, William, dec'd., and to her sons, Thomas and William McClanahan, as trustees for the benefit and trust for Agatha Pullen, wife of James Pullen and her sons, free from the control of the sd. James Pullen, hereby vested in the sd. trustees the legal title thereof, and I do hereby further devise & bequeath to Elizabeth McClanahan, widow of my son, William McClanahan, deceased and her sons Thomas and William as trustees for the benefit and exclusive use of the sd.

Now I do hereby declare it to be my last W. & T. & do give this explanation thereto, that the sd. doubtful balance of 202 acres of land is to be, and that the same is hereby vested in the sd. widow and six daughters, equally, so as to pass to them all the title thereto of which I am now possessed, except the shares the two daughters of the sd. Elizabeth McClanahan, namely Agatha Pullen the wife of James Pullen and Peggy Dudley, wife of Robert W.

I willed & requested that my son, Thomas McClanahan, Jr., my sole ext'r. should dispose of or sell all the balance of my estate not specifically devised by my sd. last W. & T. Now I do hereby will and appoint the proceeds of sd. sale residue of my estate as a fund to satisfy the devisees of my last W. & T. & to be in lieu of any of the lands by my sd. will devised, & in my last W. & T. mentioned, out of these shares respectively, a loss of land has already happened, since the making of my sd. last W. & T. in a suit which has already been decided in the Court of Appeals between me and Thomas Respess &etc. and that the residue of the sd. fund arising from the sale of my estate as afsd., if any, after repairing and making good the sd. losses of land which may have already taken place, shall be appropriated for the purpose of making good any losses which any of the devisees in my last W. & T. mentioned may hereafter sustain, it is also my will & desire that if the fund hereby provided in the hands of my executor for the purpose of making good to my sd. devisees any losses in land which already have or hereafter may happen, should at any time prove deficient for that purpose, the balance of losses unsatisfied and for the satisfaction of which sd. fund shall be insufficient shall be made up by the devisee so losing by a contribution of all the devisees to my sd. last W. & T., sd. contributions to be made in proportion to the value of the several shares of land to them devised in my sd. last W. & T., and to prevent disputes and difficulty in ascertaining the value of any shares of land in my sd. will devised to any of my devisees which shall have already or may hereafter happen to be lost, I hereby constitute the following mode of ascertaining sd. value by my sd. extr. and any of my sd. devisees who now have or may hereafter lose any part of the land to them devised, shall select and choose an umpire, and they, or a majority of them with their umpire, shall ascertain the value of the land so lost & certify the same under their hands and seals after being duly sworn, agreeable to law, which value so ascertained shall be paid by my executor accordingly when the fund herein provided for that purpose shall come into his hands, and it is further provided that the value of any share so lost for which contribution is requisite and the value of each devisee's share who has had to contribute in order to ascertain the amount of the contribution from each shall be ascertained in the same manner and by the same number of disinterested men and their umpire chosen by the party who has lost and the party contributing as has already been herein provided, in disposing of or applying for fund for losses heretofore provided in the hands of my executor, and lastly it is my desire that this my present codicil be annexed to and made a part of my last W. & T. to all intents and purposes.
