LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
I, HELEN I. FRY, of the Township of Silver Spring, County of Cumberland,

and understanding, do make, publish and declare this as and for my Last Will and
Testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills and codicils by me at
anytime heretofore made.

by my Executor or Executrix, as the case may be, hereinafter named, as soon as
conveniently may be done after my decease.
SECOND. I give, devise and bequeath all the rest, residue and remainder of
my Estate, real, personal and mixed, whatsoever and wheresoever situated, in
equal shares unto my three (3) children, namely, JOHN E. FRY, JAMES M. FRY
and RUTH E. WHITMAN, share and share alike, absolutely and in fee simple.
If any of my said children should predecease me, I order and direct
that the foregoing share of my residuary estate attributed to such deceased child
shall be distributed unto the issue of such deceased child per stirpes, by
representation and not per capita.
LASTLY. I nominate, constitute and appoint my son-in-law, namely,
DONALD E. WHITMAN, to be the Executor of this, my Last Will and Testament,
but if for any reason he should fail to qualify as such Executor or cease so to serve,
then and in that event, I nominate, constitute and appoint my daughter, namely,
RUTH E. .WHITMAN, to be the Executrix hereof, each and both to serve without
bond or other security as a condition of qualification hereunder.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I, HELEN I. FRY, have hereunto set my hand and
seal to this my Last Will and Testament, which consists of two (2) typewritten pages
to each of which I have affixed my signature this ~) 111.. day of October, A.D. Two
