I will my Grandson David Coulter              Fifty dollars.

I will my daughter-in-law Elinor Coulter     Fifty dollars.

I will my daughter Margaret Orr                Forty dollars.

If there is any left of my property after the above written is enforced I order it to be divided between my son Robert C. Coulter and my daughters Martha P. Nelson, Jane M. Long and Esther W. Bortner.
