The testator leaves £500, and all his horses, carriages, cows, greenhouse plants and effects in garden to his wife; his residence, Ridgebourne, with the pictures, furniture, plate, and effects to his wife, for life or widowhood, and then to his said son; a cottage at Newton to his daughter, Rosa Marianna Banks, and various stocks, amounting to £5500, upon trust, for her: and legacies to nephew, nieces, manager and clerks in the Kington and Radnorshire Bank, servants, and others.
