2. If any trustee of this my will shall die or remain out of Newfoundland for more than twelve months or desire to be discharged from all or any of the trusts or powers reposed in or conferred on her or shall refuse or be unfit to act therein or shall be incapable of hereby acting therein then and so often as the same shall happen it shall be lawful for the surviving or continuing trustee or trustees hereof for the time being to appoint a new trustee or trustees hereof in the place of the trustee or trustees so dead or remaining out of Newfoundland or desiring to be discharged or refusing or being incapable as aforesaid.

3. I bequeath all my household goods and chattels to my wife absolutely.
