My wife Elizabeth is to sell the same and divide the proceeds among them when they are 18. To my son Moses all my house and lot where I now dwell, and all the land adjoining below the road which runs by the west side and north end of said lot, and 10 acres of land near the third meadow, which was formerly William Pinckneys, and a 4 acre lot of land formerly my father’s, near Henry Fowler’s lot and ½ my privileges in the town of Eastchester.
