In the Name of God Amen
I John Campion Rector of Bisley in the County of Surry being I thank God in a good state of 
bodily health and not sensible of any decay of understanding but fully assured of the certainty 
of death and of the uncertainty of the time when think it proper to make and write this my last 
Will and Testament with my own hand as to my body I desire it may be buried decently and 
with as little expense as possible my Soul I humbly resign into the hand of that good God 
who gave it hoping for the pardon of my Sins by the infinite mercy of God and the infinite 
Merits of my Dear Redeemer and placing my trust and confidence in nothing else as to that 
small portion of Worldly Substance with which it has pleased God to bless me I bequeath my 
Nephew Willongby Wynors one shilling only it being one great reason why I have thought it 
necessary to make this Will to prevent his giving my Wife any disturbance after that one 
shilling shall be paid to them I bequeath the whole of whatever Worldly Substance I shall dye 
possessed of particularly a Leasehold of forty years of a house in the Parish of Chesheton in 
the County of Cambridge situate near the Castle of Cambridge known by the name of

Wife Mary Campion and do by these presents make her my sole Executrix of this my last
