By the will of Jane MCBURNEY THOMPSON, late of Houston, $100 is given the Women's Missionary society of the Houston United Presbyterian church, a like sum to the Mount Pleasant United Presbyterian church at Hickory. Letters in the estate have been issued to the Rev. J. C. KISTLER. She directs that a monument, not to cost over $200, be erected on the lot of her brother, John M. MCBURNEY, at Hickory, if there is not already one there at the time of her death. She gives $800 to each of her sisters, Sarah and Martha, and $500 to each of her brothers, John, Joseph and William. One-half of her residuary estate goes to her sisters-in-law, Jane COWDEN and Eliza MCBURNEY, and the remaining half equally to her brothers and sisters.
