Will of William Ardren the elder of Slade Hooton in Laughton en le Morthen, Yorkshire 1701

Comments:
I apologize for my inability to read the Latin at the beginning, but I took my best stab at it.  I do have a personal goal of being about to read the old Latin, and I'm sure sometime I will find a template to help me understand the standardized language used in this example.  I will fix it when I know more.
