I, W. B. Brock, of the county of Decatur, State of Georgia, being of sound and disposing mind and
memory, but realising the uncertainty of life, do hereby make this my last will and testament, hereby
revoking and annulling all others by me heretofore made.   

Item one: 
It is my will and desire that all of my just debts and legal claims against my estate, if any, be paid
as soon as practical after my death, without the sacrifice of any property.   

Item two:  
I give, bequeath and devise to my son, John Paul Brock, he surviving me, all of my property and estate,
real, pearsonal and mixed, of every kind and character, wheresoever found and or whatsoever consisting
and including all money, bonds, notes, accounts and choses in action, reversions and remainders, of
every kind, character and description, to be his absolutely and in fee simple.   

Item three:  
In consideration of my giving, bequeathing and devising of my property to my son, John Paul Brock, the
said John Paul Brock, is required to care for, maintain and support my beloved wife, Bama Brock, for
and during the remainder of her life, and to care for, maintain and support my crippled son, Noah
Brock, for and during the remainder of his natural life.   

Item four:  
To my other children, Dollie Collins, Adel Green, Corbin Brock, Frank Brock, Cleo Brock, Bufford Brock,
Ralph Brock, Abner Brock, Lance Brock, Allen Brock and the children of my deceased son, James Brock, I
give and bequeath to each of them the sum of $1.00.   

Item five:  
My farm is encumbered, my son, John Paul Brock, has remained in the home with me and has assisted me in
keeping up the payments on the encumbrance against my farm, and it will be necessary for him to
continue to assist me in paying off the encumbrance against my farm, and my said son, John Paul Brock,
can more conveniently care for, maintain and support my said wife, Bama Brock, and my cripple son, Noah
Brock, for the remainder of their lives, than can any of my other children.

Item six: 
I hereby make, constitute and appoint my said son, John Paul Brock, he surviving me, the sole executor
of this my last will and testament, and I hereby expressly confer upon him power as such, to administer
my estate, excusing and relieving him from making any inventory of my estate and from having the same
appraised, and excusing and relieving him from giving any bond of any kind or character and from making
any returns to the Ordinary, Court of Ordinary or any other court whatsoever; and I expressly confer
upon him the full authority and power to sell of any part of my estate, real or personal, mixed or
choses in action, wheresoever found and of whatsoever consisting, at public or private sale, with or
without notice or advertisement, as he may deem best and without any order of court, making good and
sufficient conveyances to the purchaser or purchasers, and holding and applying the proceeds of such
sale or sales to the same uses, purpose and trusts as hereinbefore declared in the several items of
this my last will and testament.

In testimony thereof, I, W. B. Brock, have hereunto subscribed my name and affixed my seal, this the
fourth day of January, 1954.


Witness  R. E. Wells, Burney S. Poole, J. C. Hale
