The will and the inventory of the estate of Izaak Berek Sankowicz from 1803, preserved in the city records of Ozarow (Sandomierz voivodeship), was an oral testament, made in the presence of two witnesses and beating the testator's genuine signature. This deed met all the formal requirements posed by the municipal inheritance law. It was originally written in Hebrew and then translated into Polish. Sankowicz's testament was fairly simple in structure. It lacked an elaborate preamble or even a precise description of the circumstances in which this last will was executed. However, what it was supposed to do was to settle any inheritance issues once and for all. More knowledge of Sankowicz's assets can be obtained from the inventory taken after his death. It lists and values merchandise from his shop, 'household goods' meaning furniture, clothing, modest valuables or vessels. The names of his debtors and a concise description of real estate owned by Sankowicz follow. On the other hand, there are no details of the funeral ceremony itself, other than the cost of arranging it.

The author devotes attention to Early Modern practices in connection with wills in the royal borough of Trnava as a member of the group of treasury (tavernicalis) towns. She has narrowed her research base to the 16th and 17th centuries and the archives of the Trnava town authorities, in which the first surviving wills date from 1511. She traces the inheritance procedure of inheritance from a will in the summary of questions of the right to establish a will (and other actions of the mortis causa), determination of the group of legal heirs, freedom of bequest, formal signs of the establishment of a will and the basic material-legal principles of town inheritance law in the Kingdom of Hungary in Early Modern times. The result is only a legal historical sketch of inheritance practice at Trnava, but it opens the way to further research on the extensive documentary material from the following centuries, since the researched collection is remarkable for the preservation of the originals, rather than the usual preservation of the libris testamentorum.
