FRIENDLY SUIT
ARGUED TODAY

The friendly suit brought by Charles
A. Walker. Winlfred s. Walker, adj
mlnlstratriS Of the estate OF Albert B.
Walker, deceased, and other heirs OF
Joseph X. Walker, deceased, against
Mary A. Cheesman and others, exeeu-
tors of the last viii and testament Of
Joseph Il. Walker deceased, for legal
construction Of certain provisions OF the
will Of the late Joseph r. Walker, was
argued before Judge Hall this morning
and taken under advlsement
The will provides that the property of
the estate shall not be distributed to
the heirs and devlsees until ~ years
after the death OF the testator. The
question raised Is as to whether the
title TO the property vested In the de-
yisees upon the death Of Mr.. Walker or
whether II does not vest until the ~
years has expired. Judge Howat, who
appeared for the plaintiffs, commended
that the title 10 the property was vest
ed in the deyisees al the death OF the
testator and that the 20 year clause is
invalid and against public policy for
the reason that 1t would tend to deprive
some OF the heirs Of their share in the
estate. He argued that the title must
rest in someone during the 20 years but,
that according to the terms Of the Will,
there Is no one in whom II can rest dur
ing that period. hence the title must
have vested in the devisees upon the
death Of Mr. Walker and the property
should be distributed before the expi-
ration of the 20 years.
Judge MacDowall appeared in behalf
Of the executors, and argued that the
terms OF the will should be strictly com
piled with and the estate held together
until 20 years after the death Of the tes-
tator At the conclusion Of his argu-
ment the court took the case under ad-
visement.
