Let all the widows - even common-law - and the orphans be provided for, though the deed be done by stealth; [Clause 6] So we, the undersigned, being of sound and single mind do sign our names and hope to make our mark. We pledge our allegiance, our lives, and our love; notwithstanding all of the above;
