Testamentum: Rogeri Hill, probatum Alkmunds, Salop ✝ Margareta
relict defunt, reluctanter jurat.
Will: Roger Hill proved Alkmunds, Salop ✝ Margareta
widow deceased, reluctantly sworn.
Note: reluctanter is scratched out in the middle so I can't read it. Text says the widow named was already dead and oath was thus entered perfunctorily.
