    2) Since the land is leased for seven years, at which time son George reaches maturity, the bequest can only come into power when the lease runs out. "Hence, George has to step forward in this matter as proprietor."

    3) George Zettel has after expiration of the seven years, to pay the half of the inheritance, namely four hundred dollars in four yearly terms, to his sisters Ann and Mary Zettel.

    4) The other half, namely the other four-hundred dollars, George Zettel has to pay only after the demise of both the parents, namely at the time when G. Zettel has not to give anymore the Third from the land, payable likewise in four annual installments without interest to his aforesaid sisters, but if it should happen that both parents are demised before the first installments, then payment of the second half will only take place after the first one has run out.

    5) The single sister Mary has the right in the house in which George Zettel dwells, and this in a separate room which may be heated, which she can consider as her property, and in case the house be destroyed by fire or in some other way, then George Zettel is under all circumstances indebted for her to create a dwelling in a similar manner on this land, otherwise Mary Zettel has to lay no claim to anything in regard to provisions and nursing.

    6) George Zettel is to give as long as any one of the parents, as well as both are alive, the third of all the produce of the land, in summer all grain and grass, the half of the Veitchen Garden have likewise Charles Zettel and spouse to claim as property, 2 cows, 4 sheep, 4 geese, the third part of the hens eggs to receive likewise has the right to keep, besides yet two hogs, like the aforesaid two cows, four sheep, four geese, to keep on the land as well as in the summers in the pasturage like also their place for hay and the stabling. So also is George Zettel indebted to deliver to his parents annually ten cords of good hard firewood.
