LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF
Alice Amy O'Donnell
IN THE NAME OF GOD. AMEN.
I, Alice Amy O'Donnell of 405 Penn Ayr Road, Hampden Township,
Camp Hill, Cumberland County, State of Pennsylvania (17011) being of sound
and disposing mind, memory and understanding, and capable of executing a
valid deed or contract, considering the certainty of death and the uncertainty
of the time thereof, and being desirous to settle my worldly affairs, and
thereby be the better prepared to leave this world when it shall please the
Almighty to call me hence, do hereby make, publish and declare this my
last Will and Testament, hereby revoking and annulling all wills and
testamentary dispositions heretofore made by me, in manner and form
following, that is to say:
FIRST, and principally, I commit my soul into the hands of Almighty
God, and my body to the earth, to be decently buried at the discretion of
my co-executors hereinafter named; and my will is, that all my just debts and
funeral expenses, without regard to statutory limitation or amount, shall
be paid by my co-executors hereinafter named as soon after my decease as shall
be convenient:
SECOND, I give, devise and bequeath all of my jewelry to my
daughters who shall survive me, to be shared equally and to be divided
in equal lots under the administration of my co-executors hereinafter
named:
THIRD, I give, devise and bequeath to my beloved husband, Thomas
Edward, all my furniture, clothing, pictures, statuary, works of art, silver
plate, ornaments, bric-a-brac, tapestry, household goods or supplies, linen,
china, glass, automobiles, horses, boats, coin and stamp collections, and
stocks and bonds, together with all personal effects which I may own at the
time of my death, including all policies of insurance thereon:
FOURTH, if any principal of my estate shall become distributable to
a minor, my co-executors hereinafter named may in their absolute discretion
pay over such principal at any time to the guardian of the property of such
minor, or retain the same for such minor during minority. In case of such
retention, my co-executors hereinafter named may apply such principal and the
income therefrom to the support, maintenance, and education of such minor,
either directly or by payments to the guardian of the property or person of
such minor or to the person with whom such minor may reside, in any form of
cash without requiring any bond; and the receipt by any such person shall be
a complete discharge to my co-executors hereinafter named who shall not be
bound to see to the application of any such payment. Any unapplied principal
and income shall be paid over to such legatee upon his (or her) attaining
majority, or, if he (or she) shall die before attaining majori~y, to his
(or her) estate. In holding any funds for any minor, my co-e~~utors r~
hereinafter named shall have all the powers and discretions he~afte~
.- -b
conferred upon them: ;J::C) ~

All the rest and residue of my estate, both real, personal and mixed,
I give, devise, and bequeath to my beloved husband, Thomas Edward, or,
if he does not survive me, to my surviving issue, per stirpes.
For purposes of this will, if there is not sufficient evidence
that my said husband and I died otherwise than simultaneously, then it
shall be presumed that I survived my husband.
And Lastly, I do hereby nominate, constitute and appoint my brother
and attorney, Thomas Joseph Amy, Esq., and my other brother, LeRoy Victor
Amy, Jr., co-executors of this, my last Will and Testament, and I desire
that my co-executors hereinbefore named shall not be required to give bond
for the faithful performance of the duties of that office.
