Opinion of Justice Stafford.

In reversing that finding, Justice
Stafford points out that as the income
was to provide support and education
and the boy was of about the age at
which education is usually secured, it
was not to be supposed that the
grandfather intended he should not
have this schooling for the year fol-
lowing his death. And as for support,
the court suggests il was hardly to be
supposed that the teStator expected it
not to be furnished during the period
of administration.
The appellate court also holds that
the devise does come under the excep-
tion and is to be treated as a life eS-
tate, and cites a number of decisions to
support its view.
