LIFE OF WALTON. 



little things that he will value, though of no great worth. And my 

 will and desire is, that he shall be kind to his aunt BEACIIAME, and his 

 aunt ROSE KEN ; by allowing the first about fifty shillings a-year. in or 

 for bacon and cheese, not nlore, and paying four pounds a-year to- 

 wards the boarding of her son's dyet to Mr. John Whitehead : for 

 his aunt Ken, I desire him to be kind to her according to her necessi- 

 tie and his own abilitie; and I commend one of her children, to 

 breed up as I have said I intend to do, if he shall be able to do it, as I 

 know he will; for they be good folke. I give to Mr. JOHN DARBY- 

 SHIRE the Sermons of Mr. Anthony Farringdon, or of Dr. Sanderson, 

 which my executor thinks fit. To my servant, THOMAS EDGILL, I 

 give five pound in money, and all my cloths, linen and woollen, except 

 one suit of cloths, which I give to Mr. HOLINSHED, and forty shillings 

 if the said Thomas be my servant at my death ; if not, my cloths only. 

 And I give my old friend, Mr. RICHARD MAKRIOT. ' ten pounds in 

 money, to be paid him within three months after my death ; and I 

 desire my son to shew kindness to him if he shall neede, and my son 

 can spare it. And I do hereby will and declare my son IZAAK to be 

 my sole executor of this my last will and testament ; and Doctor HAW- 

 KINS, to see that he performs it ; which I doubt not but he will. 1 

 desire my burial may be near the place of my death, and free from 

 any ostentation or charge, but privately. This I make to be my last 

 will, (to which I shall only add the codicil for rings,) this sixteenth day 

 of August, one thousand six hundred eighty-three, IZAAK WALTON.
