The following according to the To-

one time member Of the Legislature
for Upper Canada:-"In the name of
God. Amen. I, William Dunlop, of
Gairbread, in the township Of COlbOne
county of Huron, Western Canada,
Esquire, being in sound health Of body
and mind, which my friends who do not
datter me say is no great shakes at the
best of times, do make my last will and
testament as follows, revOking, of course
all former wills. Ileave Improperly of
GairbTead and all other property may
be possessed Of to my sisters, Helen
Boyle Story and Elizabeth Boyle Dun
lOp, the former because she Is married to
q minister who may God help HIM she
henpecks; the latter because she is mar
Tied to nobody, nor is she likely to be,
for she is an old maid and not market
rife. And also / leave to them and their
heirs my share of the stock and imple-
ments on the farm, providing always
that the enclosure around my brothers
grave be reserved, and if either Of them
should die without issue the other is to
inherit the whole. leave to my sister
iG-law, Louisa Dunlop, all my share of
the household furniture and such traps,
with the expectations hereafter men,
toned. [ leave my silver tankand to
the oldest son Of old John, as the repre-
sentative of the family. I would have
left it to old John himself, but he would
have melted it down to make temper
ance medals, and that would have been
a sacFilege. However, I leave him my
big horn snuffbOI; he can only make
temperance horn spoons out of that.
In0y-n my 1TGtnT fn0nv NV Ribln fNp
property formerly of my gTeat-grand-
mother, Betsey Hamilton, of WOOdhau,
and when she knows as much of the spir-

much better Christian than she is.
leave my late brothers. watch to my
brother Sandy, eXhOrting him
to give up Whiggery and Radical
ism, and all other sins tnat do most cas-
ily bcset him. Ileave to my brOther-in-
law, Allen, my punch-bOwl, as he is a
big Saucy man, and likely to do credit
to it. leave to ParsOn CheYassie my
big silver snuh-bOX got from the Sim
cOe Militia as q small token of my graf
itude to him for taking my sister Mag
gle, whom no man of taste would have
taken. L leave to John Caddell a silver
teapot, to the end that he may drink
tea theUefrOm to comfort him under the
2tIlictiGn Of Il slatteTnly wife. [ leave
my books to my brother Andrew because
he has been jingling wally, that h7 may
vet learn to read with them. leave my
silver cup, with the sovereign in the
bottom Of it, to my sister Janet Graham
Dunlop, because she is an old maid and
pi0us, and therefore necessarily given
to horning; and also my grandmOther's
snuG-bOX, as it looks decent to see an
old maid taking snuff"
