(«) Construing in connection with each other the items of the will above named, it was the intention of the testator to hold the property together until the death of Martha Scott Guinn, with a proviso that in the event of the death of any of her children in her lifetime, the Ínteres! devised to such child was to go to the “survivors,” but at the death of Martha Scott Guinn the property was to be divided and vest absolutely in the persons then entitled, namely, one share to each of her children then living-, and one share per stirpes to the surviving- children of any child of Martha Scott Guinn who died during her lifetime. The wife of the plaintiff', having survived her mother, Martha Scott Guinn, took a vested interest iu the property, which would descend by inheritance to her heirs.

(b) The plaintiff', as sole heir of his wife, having- petitioned the court for a partition of property conveyed by the will, it was proper to overrule a demurrer to the petition setting- up the contention that the plaintiff' was not entitled to any interest in such property as heir of his wife.

Judgment affirmed.
