General plan of this Precedent.

(a) It will be seen that the general plan of the will in the text is to divide the property disposed of between the three surviving children of the testator and the family of a deceased child in equal fourths; but that, as part of the property is subject to a power to appoint among children only, this cannot be fully accomplished by direct disposition; and, therefore, as to the property subject to be appointed, is effected by means of an appointment to the three surviving children, subject to a charge of one-fourth of its value in favour of the family of the deceased child, to which charge effect is given by means of the doctrine of election in equity, see infra, p. 290, note, and supra, p. 268, note. As to the testator's own property (as distinguished from that subject to his powers of appointment), there is of course no difficulty with regard to the direct accomplishment of his scheme.

of the powers so respectively reserved or given to me by the said hereinbefore recited indenture of settlement, and the said will of the said X. Y. respectively, and of all other powers in anywise enabling me in this behalf, I hereby appoint ALL AND SINGULAR the freehold copyhold and leasehold hereditaments and premises comprised in and settled by the said indenture of settlement and remaining unsold at my death; AND ALSO all and singular the hereditaments taken in exchange for or purchased with the proceeds of such settled estates or any of them, or which by virtue of any allotment, renewed grant or lease, or otherwise, shall have been substituted for any of the same settled estates, or shall have become subject at law or in equity to the subsisting uses or trusts of the said indenture of settlement, with their and every of their appurtenances; AND ALSO all and singular monies and stocks funds and securities arising from the interim investment of monies liable to be laid out in the purchase of hereditaments to be settled to the subsisting uses or trusts of the said indenture of settlement; AND ALSO all and singular the hereditaments respectively devised by the will of the said X. Y. and purchased out of his personal estate since his death, and other the real and personal estates of the said X.
