Item. I give and bequeth to my grandson William, son of my son Richard, one negroe girl named Betty, to him and his heirs forever. Item. I give and bequeth to my son Benjamin all the other part of my tract of land lying Southward of the Ridge, between the branches aforesaid, to him and his heirs forever. Item.
