On the seventeenth day of October one thousand eight hundred and ninety five, at the special insistence and request of Dame Mary Carroll, wife of James Sheehan of the Parish of Sainte Catherine, Farmer, I, Édouard Antill Panet, the undersigned Notary Public duly commissioned and sworn in and residing and practising in the Parish of Saint Raymond in the Province of Quebec and Dominion of Canada, accompanied by James Cullen and Patrick Coughlin, both farmers, and both residing in the Parish of Sainte Catherine, witnesses required by law, and expressly demanded by the said Testatrix for the purpose of witnessing her last will, repaired to the residence in said Parish of Ste. Catherine of said Testatrix, and there finding her ill in bed but of sound and disposing mind, memory, judgment and understanding as it appeared unto us Notary and witnesses from her words and actions, yet knowing and considering the certainty of death and the uncertainty of the time thereof, and being desirous of regulating her worldly affairs whilst yet she hath the strength left to do so, hath named, dictated and nominated unto us said Notary in presence of said undersigned witnesses her last will and testament in the manner and form following:

1º I recommend my soul to Almighty God my Creator in the humble hope that he will receive the same to his favor.

2º I will and order that my body be committed to the grave to be buried in a manner suitable to my station in life and according to the rites and solemnities of the Holy Roman Catholic Church and faith of which I am a member with a funeral service sung over my remains and another funeral service at the end of the year with two high masses and twenty five low masses for the repose of my soul as soon as possible after my death.

3º I give, devise and bequeath to my daughter- in-law Mary Ellen Donohue, wife of John Sheehan, all my right title and interest in and to that certain lot of land situate, lying and being in the Parish of Sainte Catherine being Lot number seven of the Sixth Range of the Seigniory of Fossambault and containing two arpents of land in breadth by forty five arpents in depth, circumstances and dependencies, said lot now known and distinguished upon the official plan and book of reference for the County of Portneuf and Parish of Sainte Catherine as lot official number one hundred and seventy nine (No. 179) to be by her used, enjoyed and disposed of in full property and ownership from and after the moment of my decease as a mark of affection for the great care she has taken of me in sickness, willing and desiring that my said rights and interest in said lot of land be exempt from seizure for any debts contracted by herself or her husband.

4º I give, devise and bequeath unto my grandson James, son of John Sheehan and Mary Ellen Donohue, his wife, all my rights, title and interests in two lots of land situate in the said Parish of Sainte Catherine being lots numbers eight and nine of the Little Range of the Seigniory of Fossambault now known as lot number one hundred and seventy seven and one hundred and seventy eight (Nos. 177 & 178) of the cadastre for the Parish of Saint Catherine and County of Portneuf, with buildings thereon erected, & also all my rights, shares, interests and title in and to the whole of the moveable and immoveable effects, household furniture, goods, and chattels situate and being on the said three lots of land numbers seven, eight and nine of the Little Range subject to the usufruct, use and enjoyment thereof of my said son John Sheehan during the whole minority of my said grandson, said usufruct to be exempt from seizure for any debts contracted by my said son John.

I hereby nominate, constitute and appoint my two sons, John and James Sheehan of the Parish of Sainte Catherine, Farmers, Executors of this my present last will and testament wishing and desiring that their power and authority as such Executors continue beyond the day and year allowed by law and until such time as their two sons, James and John, shall have attained their age of majority.

Note by Patricia Balkcom: Richard died six days later at the 31 years. His 6 month son, Richard, had died 10 days earlier, so it is possible that they both had a contagious illness. Although they were living in Quebec City at the time of their deaths according to the will, they were both buried in Ste-Catherine-d-Jacques-Cartier. Richard was the son of the late James Carroll and Ellen Aylward.
