Last Will And Testament Of John George Scharrer

I John George Scharrer of Baltimore City and State of Maryland, being of 
sound and disposing mind, memory, and understanding, make and declare this 
to be my last Will and Testament, in manner and form following. That is to 
say, after the payment of all my just debts and funeral expenses, I give, 
devise, and bequeath all my property and estate of every kind and 
description and wheresoever situate of which I may be seized or possessed at 
the time of my death, whether real, personal, or mized unto my beloved wife 
Matilde L. Scharrer, to be held by her for and during her natural life, so 
that she may have use and enjoy the same with power to her to sell and 
convey absolutely, or by way of mortgage or lease any or all of my above 
saide estate and remit the proceeds thereof in her own discretion and from 
and after the death of my said wife, then to go to my two children, Charles 
John Scharrer and Pauline M. C. Kattenkamp, share and share alike 
absolutely.

I constitute and appoint William A. Lenz to be executor of this my last Will 
and Testament, hereby revoking all other Wills and Codicils by me heretofore 
made.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name and affixed my seal 
this twenty eighth day of June in the year of our Lord one thousand nine 
hundred and two.

John G. Scharrer (seal)
