ma Enter upon ye land and ye sam to holld untill thay ^be^ Payd this I make my

my
[sic] last will and testime in witnes here of I have set my hand and seall

ye sixteeth day of november - 1721

Sealled Sined a published

liqwis = likewise


sixteeth = sixth (I think) - but could it be sixteenth?


I'm not sure what Cooare or botins means.  Is there a clue in the earlier text?

Perhaps Cooare = co-heir?
