A DKvIsE VoIp,--In New York, last week,
there was given an interesting decision upon
the construction Of will. The testator left
a portion Of his estate to be equally divided
between his two sons. In case either Of the
sons died without issue. onc-half Of his pOr-
ton was TO revert TO his brother and the
other halft to the Roman Catholic Church for
the benefit Of the testator's soul. One Of the
sons died without leaving any children. and
the other claims the other portion Of his de.
ceased brother. Archbishop Hughes and The
trustees Of st, Peters Church claim the de-
wise either for st. Peters Church. as the
church which The testator attended during
his lifetime, or for the benefit Of all the Ro.
man Catholic Churches in that diocese. Judge
Ingraham held that the devise was void Tor
uncertainty. and that the living son and heir.
at-aw was entitled to the whole Of the dis
puted property.
