Syllabus

<p>Wills — Legacies—Devise—Legacies payable out of residuary estate.</p> <p>Where a testatrix by her will bequeaths a large residuary legacy to a daughter and two smaller legacies to nieces, and directs that the balance of her estate real and personal shall be sold by her executors “and together with all remaining — after the above bequests have been paid, shall be divided share and share alike between my two sons and one daughter,” naming them, and it appears that at the time the will was made, and that at the time of the death of the testatrix, she had no personal property commensurate with the payment of the legacies, such legacies will be paid pro tanto out of the fund representing net accumulations of rent which accrued from the decedent’s real estate after her death.</p>
