Martin Chuzzlewit1994

Old Martin Chuzzlewit:
I have made a new will. Every person in this room except Pecksniff will be named as a beneficiary for a minimum of ?50. Anyone who addresses a single word to me on the subject of money from this time forth immediately forfeits his or her right to a legacy. Some who have been stalwart and selfless friends to Martin and Mary will receive much more generous bequests. Mr Tapley and Mrs Lupin - who I understand is soon to change her name to Tapley. Mr Pinch. Tom Pinch, whom I misjudged at first but whose goodness acted like summer rain upon my heart during my long confinement at Pecksniff's. Mrs Todgers has been rewarded for her kindness to Mrs Chuzzlewit. Mercy herself I propose to take under my own protection. The bulk of my estate goes to my grandson Martin, on condition he marries my ward Mary.
