SANDERS &FRANKS,ESQS.,of Washington, Pa.,representing the Accountant. Thursday,March 18,1971,at 10:00 o'clock A.M.,EST . Number 280 of 1969,the estate of John E.Ware If the Court please,I have the necessary papers in this estate.There are a great number of heirs set forth in the Audit Petition,about 20.Actually,you will only be concerne~ with about three of them.The trust created by the will must fa il du e to the widow's election to take against the will.That widow IS election is properly filed here in both the Register of Wills and the Recorder of Deeds Office.This accelerated all the bequests I~ 0(z~...~z ZIIIII. ieI!lzi:III; ti~ii...0( Uii:::l., ~w Ii0::IIIt-o::oII.III0:: t-o:::::loU oJ0( Uii:II.o in the will.The widow,of course,takes nothing under the will. in Two ct'Jildren of people mentionetl/the will have died prior to the testator and those bequests would fail.The Court,however,in thisEState would not make any award to those people as the Audit Petition is set up due to the widow's election. Two devis es of real estate to Donald T.Ward, a brother of the deceased,will be reduced by one-half and of course,the widow would be awarded the other one-half due to her election.Federal Estate Tax has been filed and the tax',estimated due,paid by the domiciliary executors in Florida.A copy of that return is attached to thes e papers.The Ancillary Executrix in Pennsylvania is also co-executor in Florida.The domiciliary executors will pay any 1970 income tax found due from the Florid" estate which has not been closed.This Federal 706 is now being audited in Florida. There is no Pennsylvania four-mill tax owed. The Florida Cou rt has already awarded the widow her dower, which is one third of the gross estate in Florida in full of all the 2 !~Florida assets.I have filed a copy of he r Petition and the Court's final order down there with the Audit papers here as well as a copy of the Florida Inventory. The will is clear but inoperative as to the widow.I am requesting that the Court in Pennsylvania award the widow her full one-half of the Pennsylvania net estate.This .. would consist of a half interest in the unsold Pennsylvania real estate of the decedent.about 1.8 acres of vacant land in North Franklin Township,and a half of a half interest in two tracts in Ferguson Township.Centre County.Pa.I have their appraised values put down and a copy.of course.of the Pennsylvania Invent(ry. The remainder of the widow's share in the Pennsylvania estate would be cash after the payment of costs of administration.debts of decedent.f"m~Ta:lt.l bill and Inheritance Tax.She is not eligible for the Pennsylvania widow's exemption.as the decedent died in Florida and no claim is made for that. The other half interest in the unsold Pennsylvan a real estate should be awarded to the brother of the deceased. Donald Ward.And I have attached the best descriptions I could get of the real estate to be awarded.One of them I think is absolu ely all right and the other is the best that could be done.The decease ~ bought 18 acres and sold tracts and rotS out of it and what I have is what is left.I described the 18 acres and excepted and reserVl d everything that he sold out that we could find of <r.:ecord.And that is the only way I could find a description. 3 THE COURT: MR.SANDERS: Is that in this co Lillty ? Oh.yes.all of it;North Franklin Township. I have only listed three people to whom the Court would make awards here.The estate of the widow.I'd like her share awarded in full so no part be awarded in Florida where she's already been "- awarded her full share of the Florida assets.The real estate to 4 which Donald T.Ward,the brother,is entitled under the will should be awarded and we are asking that all of the residue which is cash should be awarded to the Lee County Bank,Fort Myers, Florida,and Dorothy Jean Schooley,domiciliary co-executors of the estate,for further accounting and final distribution under the will. I don It thinl<tthe estate can be closed any other way.There isn't enough money either place to finish it,but there is plenty to finish it if they put together.The estate is solvent. We do not need any reaward on account of the Federal Tax becaus it was paid by the Florida co-executors and is being audited and likely will be finished even before the Florida estate is.No complications and no unpaid claims in Pennsylvania. THE COURT:Is there anyone else in Court interested in this decedent's estate? (NO RESPONSE) THE COURT: the Court.
