Rose v. Porter
Opinion of the Court
We think that, by the terms of the will, the oldest son was not to take an interest in the property, and that it was left to the discretion of the two younger sons to do for him and his family whatever in their judgment “fraternal regard ” might
It is conceded that the wife of the testator deceased before the parties entered into the agreement, and it is unnecessary to determine whether, by the will, a trust was created for her during her life.
Judgment affirmed.
