A new will

There were high fives at the Montgomery Police station when the news came through except for Detective Black. “Hey calm down guys, we still have to convict this guy and we really need more evidence. I want every minute accounted for on this guy for the last week”.

“Hey Sally, this is Jack, my son tried to kill me the other day, I’m sorry I haven’t called, but I lost my driver for awhile, but a new one will be assigned in the next day or two and I have had to start working at the dealership again. Will you forgive me?” “Of course there is nothing to forgive, I read in the papers about your car being in an accident and learned that you were not in it at the time”, Sally replied. “Let’s meet tomorrow at the diner at 10 a.m. as usual”, Jack responded.

Wilbur McGentry was assigned to be Jack, Sr.’s new driver. Wilbur was a young slacker, too, but a good kid. He was happy for the opportunity and took the job seriously. “Son, pretend when you’re with me, that you’re in Vegas and nothing happened. Got it?” “Got it, Sir”. Wilbur answered. They drove to Lawyer Dobbins office. “Mr. Dobbins, right now I want to leave my entire estate to the University of Alabama, my son is dead to me. Can you draw up such a will quickly”. “Sure, it will take about an hour is that okay?” the lawyer asked. The lawyer drafted up the document and Jack read it. “Can we add a paragraph, I’d like to give a cash gift to Sally Beaudine of whatever will pass tax-free.” Jack queried. “Sure, give me five minutes “ the lawyer answered. The new document was prepared and Jack read it. The witnesses were called in and the will was executed.
