Wills—Construction of Holographic Will.—A will in the handwriting .of a deceased testatrix, evidently written without legal assistance, no matter how poorly expressed, nor how ungrammatical may be its sentences, is to be interpreted so as to carry out the intention of the testatrix, if it can be ascertained, provided no law is violated in so doing.

Id.—Trust for Minor Children.-—Where the intention of the testatrix was manifest that the portion of four minor children should be held and managed by trustees of her own selection, for the benefit of such children, until the time when they should have possession under the terms of the will, the will created a valid trust, in which the subject-matter and purpose of the trust and the persons beneficially interested were reasonably ascertained.

Id.—Creation of Trust—Technical Language not Required.—No technical language is necessary to the creation of a trust either by deed or by will; and any expressions that show unequivocally the intention of the parties to create a trust will have that effect, even though the word “trust” is not used.

Id.—Duty of Trustees—Discretion in Use of Income—Presumption ■—Control of Court.—Where the will assigned to the trustees named “the added duty of keeping the children in such circumstances as will permit them to have every comfort of dress, etc., and all the needed education which shall fit them for a career in any position of life,” it is not void, as leaving the extent of the income to be thus used to the discretion of the trustees. The terms of the trust are imperative. The trustees will be presumed to discharge their duty reasonably and properly; and they are at all times subject to the supervision of the court, and answerable for any failure of duty or abuse of their power.

Id.—Vesting of Estate in Trustees—Implication—Extent of Trust.

•—Though there is no direct devise of an estate to the trustees, yet where, from the nature of the duties to be performed, the taking of such estate is necessary, an estate in the trustees will vest by implication, but only to the extent necessary for the performance of the trust.

Id.—Distribution of Estate Subject to Trust.—It is the duty of the court having jurisdiction of the estate, not only to distribute to the trustees the estate necessary for the performance of their trust, but also to distribute to the children their respective shares in the trust property subject to the trust, when there was a direct testamentary gift to them subject only to the trust.

Id.—Contingency of Death of Child.—Where the whole title to the property passed from the testatrix by the will it was erroneous to decree that, in the event of the death of one of the children before arriving at the age mentioned in the will, the property would go to the heirs of the testatrix. In such event the child’s share in the property would vest in fee in his or her heirs.
