I, C. L. Flinn, in the event of my death prior to the
death of my nurse, Viola Harris, direct:
I.
That all of my Just debts, including funeral expenses,
be first paid out of my estate by my executor, hereinafter named,
with as little delay as possible.
II,
I direct that the balance of my property, both real,
personal and otherwise, be divided as follows:
1. I give and bequeath to my nurse, Viola Harris, until
her death, all of the net income from my farms. It is my desire
and I also give and bequeath to my nurse, Viola Harris, my car
and all my personal and household belongings.
2. At the death of my nurse, Viola Harris, and I so
direct, all doctors and hospital bills, together with funeral ex-
penses, including a modest tombstone, be paid out of my estate
before said estate is divided among the heirs and beneficiaries
as hereinafter stated.
3. After the death of Viola Harris and the payment of
accounts and bills as hereinabove set out, I will and bequeath
sum of One Thousand Dollars ($l,000.00) to my sister, Maggie
4. I will and bequeath to Lottie Bell Hutto an amount
equal to that received, as hereinafter set out, by any nephew
or niece.
5. It is my desire and I so direct that after the above
has been paid, the balance of my estate be divided into eleven
equal parts and distributed as follows:
A. One part each to all of my living brothers and sis-
ters living at the time of' my death.
B. The remaining shares are to be divided equally
among the living children of my deceased brothers and sisters,
at the time of my death, share and share alike. It being my de-
sire, at the time of my death, the living children of my deceased
brothers and sisters are to share and share alike on a per capita
basis and not by stirps.
III.
I hereby nominate, constitute and appoint my esteemed
friend and nephew, H. H. Hutto, sole independent executor of this,
my last will and testament, and I, having full confidence in him
and in his honesty, integrity and fair dealings, direct that no
bond or other security be required of him as executor; further,
I realize that his services, experience and knowledge, will be
of great value to my estate and I desire that he lose nothing by
his services, but he be fully compensated and I direct that he
shall receive for his services in probating this will and settling
my estate one quarter of any mineral and lease money, bonuses for
any mineral lease or leases, mineral and or oil and gas royalties,
or any receipts from any mine, minerals, oil and or gas leases,
or contracts from or off of any said land of which I may die
possessed.
IV.
In the event any one of my beneficiaries hereinabove
made shall contest the probating of this will or attack any por-
tion thereof, or in any way be a part, either directly or indirect-
ly, to any legal proceedings attacking the validity of this will
or any part thereof, or seek to have said will or any provision
thereof construed in any manner different from that in which my
executor may construe same, such beneficiary or beneficiaries so
doing, shall forfeit the bequest herein made to him, her or them
and any bequest so forfeited shall revert to and become a part of
my estate.
It is my will and I direct that my executor, H. H.
Hutto, is to have a period of two years after the death of my
nurse, Viola Harris, in which to settle and finally consummate
the terms of this will.
VI,
It is my will and I direct that no other action shall
be had in the administration of my estate than to prove and record
this will and return an inventory and appraisement of my estate
and list of claims.
