The last will and testament of Nancy Clarke Bache is as follows: 

 I hereby, in pursuance and exercise of the power of appointment contained in the last 

 will and testament of my husband, Alexander Dallas Bache, devise, bequeath, and appoint 

 the sum of five thousand dollars of the principal of the estate of my said husband, over 

 which I have a power of appointment by his will, to be paid by his executors, or by such 

 person or persons as shall hold the principal of the estate at my death, to my nephew, 

 Henry Wood Bache, absolutely; and I hereby request my nephew, in case he should die 

 unmarried and without issue, to make such a disposition of this amount by will as will secure 

 it to be paid at his death to the National Academy of Sciences, at Washington, to be held 

 by that corporation upon the same trusts and for the same purposes as are declared by my 

 husband in his will as to the residue of his estate after my death. I expressly desire, 

 however, that it shall be understood that this request shall not be construed into any 

 direction which would interfere with his full control of the principal, which is to be paid 

 into his hands directly.
