to his will, he left the sum of Nine Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars
to you in the codicil and last testament to his will.

Being a widely travelled man, he must have been in contact with you in the
past or simply you were nominated to him by one of his distant relatives
abroad who wished you good. Engr.Mark Billings until his death was a former
managing director and pioneer staff of a giant construction company(Julius
Berger). He was a very dedicated Christian who loved to give out. His great
philanthropy earned him numerous awards during his life time. Late Engr.Mark

"WILL" is now ready for execution.
