TAKEN.T0 COURT
Seek to Determine Whether Prop.
erty Of Moline Baker Has Be-
come Interstate.

Bill for construction of the will
Of Peter Langbehn, Moline, baker,
who died NOV. 80, 1921, was filed
in circuit court this morning. The
Fifth Avenue Trdst & Savings
bank, Moline, as executor, petitions
the court to determine whether the
estate has become intestate prop
erty. The defendants are HAIRY
Langbehn, Peter Langbehn, Jr.,
Frank Langbehn, sons of the de-
ceased, and their children.
In the second, third, fourth and
fifth clauses OF the will the ques
ton arises whether the devise at
tempted to be made is not void by
reason of violation of the rule
against perpetuities. 1t is also
shown by peculiar wording the ex-
ecutor is uncertain whether the
sons of Mr.. Langbehn by said
clauses take base fees, which by
reason of failure of executory de-
vises in favor of the grandchildren,
have resulted in titles in fee simple,
or whether they take life estates
under these, clauses, and by reason
OF the failure of executory deyises
in favor OF the grandchildren the
remainder of the life estates has
become intestate property.
The seventh TO 18th clauses are
regarded as an entire scheme OF
plan of the testator to dispose OF
his property and IL sustained the
court is asked to determine wheth-
er by reason of failure of a Dor
ton of said plan all of the prop
erty becomes intestate.
A third question concerns the in
tent of the testator in assigning a
beQuest to Herbert Langbehn',
child OF Frank Langbehn. when in
reality the grandson's name is
Harold Langbehn. 1t Is shown
there is no Herbert.
