POWER OF ATTORNEY

I, Jacqueline T. Williams, do hereby constitute
and appoint Preston D. Wigner and
Catherine H. Claiborne my true and lawful
attorneys-in-fact, any of whom acting
singly is hereby authorized, for me and in
my name and on my behalf as a director,
officer and/or shareholder of Universal
Corporation, to (i) prepare, execute in my
name and on my behalf, and submit to the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC") a Form ID, including any
necessary amendments thereto, and any other
documents necessary or appropriate to obtain
or update codes and passwords enabling
me to make electronic filings with the SEC
of reports required by Section 16(a) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any
rule or regulation of the SEC in respect
thereof; and (ii) prepare, execute and file
any and all forms, instruments or documents,
including any necessary amendments thereto,
as such attorneys or attorney deems necessary
or advisable to enable me to comply with
Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 or any rule or regulation of the SEC
in respect thereof (collectively, "Section 16").

I do hereby ratify and confirm all acts my
said attorney shall do or cause to be done
by virtue hereof.  I acknowledge that the
foregoing attorneys-in-fact, serving in such
capacity at my request, are not assuming,
nor is Universal Corporation assuming, any of
my responsibilities to comply with Section 16.

This power of attorney shall remain in full
force and effect until it is revoked by
the undersigned in a signed writing delivered
to each such attorney-in-fact or the
undersigned is no longer required to comply
with Section 16, whichever occurs first.

WITNESS the execution hereof this 8th day of
May, 2020.
