III. My jewelry and wearing apparel, I leave to my sister, Mary L. Thompson absolutely to keep or depose of as she sees fit.

V. I appoint my said brother executor of this Will and desire that no Bond or inventory be required of him as such and that as such executor he have charge of my sister’s aforesaid with power to sell and reinvest at the discretion as he deems best for her interests.
