Deposition of J.G. Hendricks, age 37 years old, resides in Franklin, Tenn.
I have known of the tract of land in the first district owned by W.G. Lampley and on which he was living when he died. There is about 100 acres in the ?. It is rolling land. There is a small log dwelling house and a log barn or small stable with 2 or 3 stalls in it and a small
smoke house when I was last there. It has a fair spring and plenty of stock water, plenty of fire wood, and no valuable timber. The land cannot be divided into 8 or 9 parts. It would be in the best interest of the heirs for it to be sold and a division made.
