 Item. As gratitude is of all oblations the greateſt and moſt acceptable, I do give and bequeath to my dear friend Mr Thomas Thoroughgood, Merchant in London, who ſaved me from an ignominious death, and redeemed me from ſlavery, all the reſt and reſidue of my real and perſonal eſtate; and I do nominate and appoint him, and his heirs and executors, my heirs and executors for ever. In witneſs whereof, I have hereunto ſet my hand and ſeal, this third day of May, 1740.

Witneſs Thomas Williams, John Wilſon, Richard Jones.
