    Default Sentence in will - transcription query!

    Any assistance with transcribing the following snippet of a will proved at Gloucester would be greatly appreciated. I believe it identifies a Giles Pike, son of John Pike.



    My transcription is:
    "The Condicon of this obligation is such that if the above bound Giles Pike said full and ? son and Administrator of all and singular the goods ? and ? of John Pike late of Tetbury woolcomber deceased".

    The key words are the three in front of son.

    Thanks,

    Ben

    * Note: The above image is a fair-use snippet for non-commercial research purposes from a will held at Gloucestershire Archives and available to view on ancestry.co.uk.

    I don't think it reads 'said full' but 'lawfull'. Unfortunately I can't make out the next word, I think the second letter is r (look at the r at the end of singular)and the next two letters look like al but I cannot work out what it says.
