      First and principally I do commend my soul into the hands of my lord Jesus Christ who by his most precious blood redeemed me

      And as touching my worldly estate I do hereby revoke and utterly renounce all former Wills, Deeds of gift or other matters whatsoever that may any way hinder or be prejudicial to this my last Will and Testament, my body I do commit to the earth whereof it was made and I will the same to be buried in the parish church of St. John's in Walbrooke, London, where I received my first breath and when my belove late wife lyeth buried and desire to be layed as near unto her as conveniently may be and to be buried in the night without any great charge.

      And my will is that within three months after my death there shall be set up a fairi with pendant with my coate arms and the arms of my late wife and of my now wife, also the city's arms, the Merchant Adventurers arms and the Mercers' Arms and every one of the said Arms to be fairly gilt.

      Item I do will that four hundred pounds be paid unto GEORGE CARLTON and JOHN VAVSOUR, Gent to such uses as are expressed in the condition of the bond which I sealed unto them before I entered marriage with my now wife which was to my best remembrance for the better maintenance of her and her children after my decease but I refer that unto their disposing.

      Item I do will that next after this four hundred pounds to GEORGE CARLTON and JOHN VAVASOR discharged my son WILLIAM TROTT be paid two hundred pounds which is due to him by my Bond after my decease.

      Item, I do give unto my son WESTERNE and his wife, my daughter, two shillings and six pence.

      Item, I do give unto my son BANISTER and my daughter his wife two shillings and six pence.

      Item, I do give unto my daughter NORDEN two shillings and six pence.

      Item I do give unto my son MARTIN TROTT two shillings and six pence.

      Item I do give and bequeth unto MR. INDE now minister of the parish of Nasinge wherein I dwell five pounds for the burial of my former wife and for his dues and duties for my own burial.

      Item I give unto SARA CAGE my grandchild which was born in the house wherein I now dwell the bond of fifty pounds which is due to me or my Executrix nine months after my decease by SIR GEORGE PERINT, KNIGHT and MARTIN TROTT my son to be paid unto the said SARA when she cometh to the age of one and twenty years or at her marriage which shall first happen and I do will that the money shall remain in the hands of my welbeloved wife for and towards the education of the said SARA whom I do intreat to educate and bring her up. And if the said SARA shall happen to die before she shall be married or accomplish the age of one and twenty years then my will is that my welbeloved wife PHILLIPP TROTT shall have the fifty pounds.

      Item, I do give and bequeath unto WILLIAM my son my seal ring at arms and whatsoever shall remain of my personal estate these sums above mentioned my burial and funeral rites and all other debts if any be being paid and sicharged.

      Item, I do will that four indifferent honest and peaceable men be chosen two of them by my son WILLIAM and the other two by my welbeloved wife which within three weeks after my decease shall indifferently prise my goods and personal estate but if it shall happen that my son WILLIAM shall not make choise of two indifferent honest and peaceable men within the time before limited then my will is that PHILLIPP TROTT my welbeloved wife shall make choice of the whole four to prise my goods and personal estate.

      Item I do make and ordain PHILLIPP TROTT my welbeloved wife to be my sole Executrix of this my last Will and Testament.

      Item, I do appoint EDWARD INDE now minister of Nasinge and JOHN JOVE of Broxbourn, Gent, to be overseers of this my last Will and Testament.

      Item, I do will that if any controversy shall arise between my son WILLIAM TROTT and my welbeloved wife whom I have made my sole Executrix that my said overseers shall choose two indifferent honest men to join with them and shall end all controversies between them for my earnest desire and my will is that they should not go to law.

      By me MARTIN TROTT
