Will of Sarah E. Hayden
January 28th, 1915, - Lebanon, State of Kentucky
I, Sarah E. Hayden, do make this my last will, if I die without making any other:
FIRST I will my soul to Almighty God who created it.
SECOND - my body to mother earth.
THIRD - $2 Two hundred dollars to the Benediction order of Priest to say Masses for the repose of my soul and my deceased husband and children.
FOURTH - I direct all of my just debts be paid, my Dr. Bill and funeral expenses, I want a mark to my grave of a gray lime stone base 30 thirty inches by 20 twenty, with a gray granite Pillow cemented on top for the Inscription, that will be good enough for me, whoever takes care of me in my old age and death sickness, I want them paid a reasonable price for their trouble and kindness shown me. And if they should be any thing over, I want my children to share and share equal, and Madena Myrtle Spalding, my grand daughter to have equal share if she is living and if she is dead it must come back to my estate equal to my own children Louella Hayden Raley, William Leo Hayden, James Francis Hayden. This is my last wishes I hope no one won't be offended nor feel hurt over this. Amen.

May the 12, 1920, Lebanon, ----- This is a skegle [sic] to my last will written in 1915, I find it necessary to make a few changes in the last part of the will where I wanted my children to share and share alike, they can't do that now as I lost several hundred dollars out of my real estate. I want Madona Myrtle Spalding to have One hundred dollars when she arrives at the age of 21 with interest of 6% per cent given at my death. If she should die before that time the money is to be given for masses for the repose of her soul and her mother Myrtle Hayden Spalding.
I want William Leo Hayden to have my new bed blanket, a blue bed comfort and white bed spread, a pair of wide bleached bed sheets, a pair [of] hemstitched pillow cases. Anita Hayden my grand daughter to have my feather bed and feather pillows. Susan Ann Raley my grand daughter to have my new trunk and oak ward-robe, my gold rosary and my wedding ring and my collar pin. I want Louella Hayden Raley after all the bequeaths is settled to have every thing real and personal without any exceptions, and I leave her Executor of my will and I expect her to carry out my last wishes, you will find my will with Mr. Albert Kelly, cashier of the Citizens National Bank of Lebanon, Ky., Will of Sarah E Hayden.
Don't think I have cut my son James Francis Hayden heirs out, they have got more of my estate both real and personal than I have got.
Give to William Leo Hayden my son $5 dollars in cash. Sarah E. Hayden
