First I desire all my just debts and my funeral and testamentary expenses to be paid by my Executors as soon as possible after my death, and I direct them to pay all Succession Duty payable in respect of my Estate without delay.
Second I give, devise and bequeath all the property real and personal moveable and immoveable, wheresoever situate, of which I may die possessed to my sister Dame Margaret Jane Little, widow of the late Honourable Edmond Henry Spring-Rice, my brother Leonard Greenham Little and my niece Theodosia M. Spring-Rice, Doctor of Osteopathy, to be divided among them in the following proportions, namely, forty per cent or four parts each to my sister and brother and twenty per cent or two parts to my said niece.
THIRD.. This bequest is made for the alimentary support of the legatees, and upon condition that no part of my estate, either in capital or revenue, shall be liable for their debts or to be seized or attached for any reason, which provision shall not however prevent the Legatees from hypothecating property voluntarily, such debts being excepted from this condition and the shares of my sister and niece are for their separate use and shall not either in capital or revenue fall into any Community of Property which may exist between either of them and any husband whom she may marry.
Fourth. To execute my will I name as executors my sister the said Mrs. Margaret Jane Little or Spring-Rice, my brother the said Leonard Greenham Little and my niece the said Theodosia M. Spring-Rice, whose powers as such I extend beyond the year and day and so long as anything remains to be done in connection with my estate. I give them the seizin and possession of all my property, moveable and immoveable, and power to sell or otherwise dispose of the same in such manner for such price and upon such terms and conditions as they may see fit, and they may compromise claims both in favor of and against my estate.
While there are three executors a majority may act and in any way bind my estate. They need not give security in any Province, State or Country.
Fifth. I revoke all former wills and declare this to be my LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT.
THE PRESENT LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT was thus executed at the city of Montreal on the date herein above first written and remains of record in the office of the said Mtre Fry under the Number Sixteen thousand four hundred and fifty seven.
