Imp s: I give and bequeath my soul into the hands of Almighty God, hoping through the meritte of Jesus Christ

acres of land, but since surveighed and received by me 688 acres more or less, with all that tract or parcell of land,
commonly knowne and called by the name of the "Magpy Swampe," according to a destrict pattent thereof taken
by my father-in-law, Thomas Taylor, deceased, containing by said pattent two hundred and fifty acres of land,

hundred and fifty acres, more commonly knowne by the name of the "Magpy Swampe," according to the bounds of
the first pattent taken up as aforesaid, be set apart and divided from the parcel of land which I bought of Zacheriah

I doe also give and bequeath unto my sonn HENRY CARY and unto my sonn MYLLES CARY all that tract or
