Ward v. Cooper

Campbell, C. J., delivered the opinion of the court. Only the immediate offspring of Barth enia Guinn were entitled to take under the will, since the gift is to “ children,” [795] and a broader than the primary signification of the word is not given to it by the will. Her children living at her death were the class designated by the will as those who were to take, “equally and jointly,” at the termination of the life-estate. Affirmed.
