Ltd. and other items at my credit in their books: provided further that in the event of my wife having a child for me, such child is to receive one fifth of the amount otherwise due to my wife under this will. In the event of my wife predeceasing me, the amount set out for her is to be evenly divided between my surviving brothers & sister. At the time of making this will I am on the point of leaving England to fight for a great and just cause, in fact for all that Englishmen, the world over, hold dear, in a word for national existence. If I am called upon to lay down my life I hope the glory of the cause will fully comfort any who might mourn for me. Here I must record my admiration for my dear wife's brave self-sacrifice, devotion and unflinching courage. So far from ever trying to dissuade me from the duty which lay clear before me, she has by her noble self-control and sympathetic love, given me the encouragement and help I always knew she would. Of my beloved parents I must add that none ever enjoyed better or ever will. May God bless and keep them all. I regret the trouble of executing this will which will probably largely devolve on one of the finest and most lovable men I have ever known. Farewell, John Harvey. N. A.
