first to my sister’s child Euphina Monipenny one
thousand five hundred Rixdollar together with my furniture in
Småland as also the third part of my rings together with
the other two of my nieces in Scotland. The bed-clothes
and other utensils in Scotland I leave to Agnes Spens and
Elisabeth Hamilton in equal parts, also the rings in equal
parts with the aforesaid Euphemia. To my cousin Peter
Monipenny, the eldest son, five hundred Rixdollar, to my
cousin William Monipenny the farmes which he already
possesses in so far they belong to the estate left to me
and my heirs; to Jacob Douglas three hundred Rixdollars.
My highly esteemed Cousin Colonel John Teillor shall
have the above-mentioned ring with the large diamond in
it, after it has been ransomed ; . . My faithful servant
Davie Lawson for his services is to receive fourty Rixdollar,
my gray Coat jacket and trousers together with a complete
black suit and twenty Rixdollar added to the ten which
he received annually for his services. The rest of my
property and estates I leave to be divided between my
Father’s Brother’s John Ramsays children.

After the expenses of my funeral have been paid as
well as my debts and legacies as aforesaid I ordain that my
executors shall pay to Captain W. Monipenny five hundred
Rixdollars, item to John Hunter one hundred;

It is my earnest desire and wish that my highly esteemed
patrons who are mentioned above as my executors
together with my cousin General Robert Douglas’ advice
and assent, as well as that of my honoured and true
friend Colonel Hugh Hamilton will not only look to the
administration of my property in Scotland, but in like
manner to everything I possess or might be procured
from Her Maj. of Sweden on my account.

Likewise I earnestly pray that my above-named
executors take care that my mother’s body be buried
