Syllabus

<p>Construction of Will — Gift of Residuary Estate.</p> <p>A gift by testator of all the residue of his estate, real and personal, to his wife, “according to the provisions directed by law,” is to be construed as giving all the residuary estate to his wife, the phrase in quotations coming far short of evidencing an intention that the wife should receive only a part of the residuary estate. p. 204</p>
