VICE-CHANCERY.—(THIS DAY')
(Before Sir K. BRUCE.)
CRAIKE V. LAMBE—JUDGMENT.
The question in this case is one of right cons,Vtle.
tion of the terms of a will made by Mr. James Grwe:
who after giving several legacies, gave and bequeathed
all the remainder of his real and personal es-
tate, of whatsoever the same might cools!:
unto and equally between and among 811
his relations who might claim and pro'
their affinity to him by lineal descent, the property
to be divided share and share alike. The will was
dated the 18th of February, 1837, and the testator,
died the 22d of the same month, a widower, and
without issue.

His HONOUR gave judgment in the case this morn:
ing; after going at great length into the facts and
circumstances of the case, he said he must not
be understood as giving any opinion as t°
whether the word "relatives " comprehended persons
connected by marriage to another, and not by kindred
of blood. The Master had found that the parties
entitled were the relations by kindred, and he should
confirm that finding ; the property in dispute would,
therefore, go to the next of kin, and not to the heirs'
at-law.
