ESTATE OF H|BBS
GOES TO DAUGHTER
Mrs. Helen Legg and De-
scendants to Share Trust
Fund of Financier.

William Beale Hibbs, late head of
w. B. Hibbs & Co., who died January
a, left his entire estate in trust for his
daughter, Mrs. Helen Hibbs Legg OF
this city and her descendants. it was
revealed when his will was filed late
yesterday in District Court.
No indication was given of the size
of the estate, which will be disclosed
later In q petition for probate.
In order to avoid possible embar-
rassment to his partners in the brok-
erage firm, Mr.. Hibbs authorized his
executors and trustees to delay for
two years liquidation of his share in
the business.
The American Security and Trust
Co., and John S. F1annery, local at
torney, were named executors and
trustees. They we're directed to pay
the income from the estate to Mrs.
Legg in quarterly installments.
After Mrs. Legg's death, the income
will go to her lineal descendants in
equal shares until 20 years after the
death of the last of the descendants
who were living at the death of the
testator. Then the principal will be
distributed among Mrs. Legg's living
descendants. Should she have no de-
scendants at that time, the estate will
20 to Hibbs' heirs at law and next
OF kin.
The will was executed February s.,
1881. and was nodded into its final
form by two codicils, the first dated
November 5, 1882, and the second
June IA, 1884.
