 Redeemer, of a happy resurrection. As for 

 my worldly goods, I desire my debts, if I leave 

 any, may be first paid, and that done, I leave 

 and bequeath to the Right Honourable Thomas 

 Lord Viscount Weymouth, in case he outlives 

 me, all my books of which his Lordship has 

 not duplicates, as a memorial of my gratitude 

 for his signal and continued favours ; I leave 

 and bequeath to the Library of the Cathedral 

 at Wells, all my books of which my Lord 

 Weymouth has the duplicates, and of which 

 the Library there has not ; or in case I outlive 

 my Lord, I leave to the Library aforesaid to 

 make their choice of all of which they have 

 not duplicates ; and the remainder of my 

 books, not chosen for the Library, I leave to 

 be divided between my two nephews, Isaac 

 Walton and John Beacham, excepting those 

 books I shall dispose of to others. I give and 

 bequeath to my sister Ken the sum of Ten 

 pounds ; to my niece Krienberg the sum of 

 Fifty pounds. I give and bequeath to my 

 nephew John Beacham the sum of Fifty 

 pounds. I give and bequeath to my nephew
