legal reason has been shown why
the trust should not be continued
in accordance with Mr.. Girard's
directions.
Judge Lefever wrote:
lone of the most treasured
rights of a free man in a free
civilization is the right to dis
pose Of his property at death as
he sees fit. This right is so sacred
that a testator's directions will
be enforced even though re-
pugnant to the general views of
society"
In Mr.. Girard's will, a per-
petual trust was left to provide
a school for orphan boys. The
fund is handled by the Phila-
delphia Board of City Trusts and
over the years the money on
hand has grown through inter-
est and wise investment.
