LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
I,H.ROSS HUMELof the Borough of Canonsburg,
I Washington County,Pennsylvania,do hereby make,publish and
declare this as and for my last Will and Testament,hereby revok-
ing and making null and void all wills or writings in the nature
thereof by me heretofor made.
~I direct that all my just debts,£uneral
expenses,costs of administering my estate,and inheritance taxes
be paid as soon as convenient after my decease.
2.I give,devise and bequeath all my estate,
of whatsoever character and wheresoever situate,absolutely and
in fee,to my beloved wife,Louise H.Hume,and this provision
shall not be affected by the birth of children to us after the
date of this my last will and testament.
~In the event that my wife be deceased at
the time of my death,I give,devise and bequeath all my estate,
of whatsoever character and wheresoever situate,absolutely and
in fee,to the GUARDIAN TRUST COMPANY,of Cleveland,Ohio,in
trust,however,for the following purposes,to-lfvit:
~To hold,manage,control,invest and reinvest,
alter,vary and change the investments and reinvestments,in the
exercise of its jUdgment,but the Tr~ee shall be limited at all
times to such investments as are or may be authorized by the
laws of Ohio for the investment of trust funds;however,the
Trustee in the exercise of its discretion may purchase any
securities that form part of my estate,but only if it deems such
a course for the best interest of this trust and the beneficiarie
herein.
•e-
~To lease,mortgage,sell and convey any or all
of the real estate of which I may die seized or which may form
part of said trust estate,and to give good and sufficient leases
mortgages,deeds or other writings,or assurances therefor,with
as full power,and to the same extent,as I could do if living.
~The principal of the trust fund shall be divided
into equal shares of such a number that there shall be one share
for each child of mine then living,or each child of mine then
dead leaving issue born of its body.If any child is a minor at
the date of my death,the Trustee shall use the income of said
share for the suitable support,maintenance and education of said
child,accumulating any balance of income that may not be requir-
ed for this purpose;and at the arrival of such child at majority
the accumulated income from said share,if any,shall be paid
over to it;then,after such child shall have attained its
majority,the Trustee shall use the income of such share for the
suitable support,maintenance and education of said child,accumu
lating any balance of income that may not be re~lired for this
purpose until said child shall arrive at the age of twenty-five
years,at which time the accumulated income shall be paid over
to it,together with the principal of such child's share.
~It is my intention in executing this instrument
to adequately provide for my children,and so,although payment
of income is hereinabove only provided for,in addition to the
payment of the income for the support,maintenance and education
of my children,the Trustee is hereby authorized and directed,
in the exercise of its sound discretion,to apply to the use of
my children,out of the principal of the share of the Child,such
sums as it shall deem meet and proper.
(e)If any child of mine shall die while any of its
share remains unpaid,the amount so held with any accrued income
shall thereupon be paid per stirpes to the issue of said child
•
living at his or her death.In the event of the death of any
child without leaving issue surviving him or her,any amount
then held by the Trustee for the benefit of said child,and any
accumulated or accrued income shall thereupon be divided in equal!
I
shares among the shares for the other children and distributed,I
or held in trust,according to the terms hereof relating to said
other child's share.
ill-If at any time any part or all of the principal or
income of the trust estate shall not be distributable under the
terms of this will because of the death of anyone or all of the
beneficiaries hereunder,or because of the non-existence of any
one to take hereunder,by operation of law or for any reason
whatsoever,then and in any such case such part or all of the
!
trust ~hall vest absolutely in those persons who would be entitled
to receive the same under the then existing Intestate Laws of
Ohio,had I died at that time xeized or possessed thereof,being
a citiryen of Ohio.
(g)If,under the provisions of this article,any
minor (other than my children)shall become entitled to the
principal of any distributive share or sub-share,such distributive
share or sub-share shall thereupon vest in such minor absolutely
notwithstanding his or her minority,but during such minority the
principal of such share or sub-share shall remain in the care and,;
"custody of and be adminis~ed by said Guardian Trust Company,
which for the purpose of such administration shall have all of
the powers,authority and discretion granted to it as Trustee
hereunder.When such minor shall attain the age of twenty-one
years,the principal of each share or sub-share shall be transferred
and paid over to him or her.
(h)Neither the principal,income or any sums payable
under the provisions of this trust shall be pledged,assigned,
transferred or sold,or in any manner whatsoever anticipated,
"j c
.~-
pledged,charged or encumbered by the beneficiaries thereunder,
nor shall it be subject to seizure by any creditor of any
beneficiary,nor be in any manner liable in the hands of the
!--~---~.
Trustee for the debts,contracts or engagements of the beneficiart
ies thereunder.
;
ilL If the Trustee shall at any time be merged in or
consolidated with any other trust company or banking institution
with trust powers,or after having so merged or consolidated,
the merged or consolidated institution shall again/and/or suc-
cessively merge or consolidate with anyone or more trust
companies or banking institutions;or if any fiduciary corpora-
l
tion shall purchase or acquire substantially all the assets of th
Trustee,such successor or succeeding company or institution,
or such corporation so acquiring said assets,mediately or
immediately,and by whatsoevere name known,shall thereupon be
Trustee her~under.
4.I hereby nominate,constitute and appoint
my beloved wife,Louise H.Hume,Executrix of this my last will
and testament,but in the event that she does not desire to ad-
minister my estate,then the Guardian Trust
Ohio,shall act as Executor of this my last
