He stated that he had advanced and loaned Stephen various sums equating to three hundred and twenty pounds for which Stephen had declined to provide security. His executors were instructed to invest one hundred and eighty pounds and the interest to be paid to Mary while the principal was to be shared amongst her children when they reached twenty one years of age.
