MENTZER, SR., Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding, do hereby make, publish and declare this as and for my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all other wills and codicils heretofore made by me. FIRST I direct the payment of my debts and the expenses of my last illness and funeral from my estate as soon after my death as conveniently may be done. Further, in this connection, I authorize my personal representative to expend funds from my estate, in such amount as my personal representative shall consider necessary and desirable for the purchase, erection and inscription of a suitable marker Jfor my grave. SECOND ~~ I give, devise and bequeath my entire estate of whatever nature or wherever situate to my wife, LENA M. MENTZER if she shall survive me by thirty (30) days. Should my wife predecease me or fail to survive me by thirty (30) days, then I give, devise and bequeath all of my estate of whatever nature or wherever situate unto my children, WILLIAM F.

MENTZER, DOROTHEA ADAMS and CRISTINE SCHROEDER, Co-Executors of this my Last Will and Testament. It is my understanding that my children will not receive compensation for their services as they are all sharing equally in my Will. I relieve my personal representative from the necessity of posting security in connection with her duties as such in any jurisdiction in which he may be called upon to act insofar as I am able by law to do so. FOURTH `~., In addition to the powers conferred by law, I authorize my Executrix in her absolute discretion: A. To retain in the form received, and to sell either at public or private sale any real or personal property. B. To manage real estate. C. To invest and reinvest in all forms of property without being confined to legal investments, and without regard to the principal of diversification. D. To exercise any option or rights arising from ownership of investments. E. To compromise claims without court approval, and without the consent of any beneficiary.
