LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
I, RICHARD H. CARPENTER, of Hiddlesex Township, Cumberland
County, Pennsylvania, being of sound and disposing mind and
memory, do hereby make, publish and declare this to be my Last
Will and Testament, hereby revoking any and all former Wills or
Codicils by me made.
1.
I direct that all my just debts, funeral expenses, testa-
mentary expenses and all inheritance taxes shall be paid from
my residuary estate as soon as practicable after my decease and
as part of the administration of' my estate.
2.
If any person to take under this Will shall die simultan-
eously with me or under such circumstances as to render it
difficult or impossible to determine who predeceased the other,
or if any person to take under this Will shall die within
thirty (30) days of my death, I hereby declare that I shall be
deemed to have survived said person and that this Will and all
its provisions shall be construed upon that assumption and basis.
3.
I give, devise and bequeath all my estate, both real and
personal property, including all vehicles, tools and farm
machinery which are owned in my own name, unto my wife, EVELYN M.
CARPENTER, absolutely.
4.
In the event my said wife shall predecease or fail to surviv
me, then I give, devise and bequeath all of my estate, both real
and personal property, unto my Trustee, in trust, for the
LAW Of'FICES
WIWAM F. MAATSON, P.C.
following purposes:
(a) I direct that my Trustee shall hold, invest and
.
'.
.
reinvest the same, collect the income arising therefrom, and
after paying all expenses incident to the management of the
trust, to use and apply as much of the income and principal
as may be necessary in the sole discretion of my Trustee, in
equal shares, for the support, well-being and education of my
children, STANLEY R. CARPENTER, DEBORAH L. CARPENTER and
RANDALL A. CARPENTER, and any other children born of my said
marriage. I direct that the income arising from said trust
shall be payable in equal shares directly to said children as
they attain the age of eighteen (18) years.
(b) I direct that each of my said children shall have the
right of withdrawal of the principal of his or her share in the
following manner: twenty per centum (20%) thereof as each
attains the age of twenty-one (21) years; thirty per centum (30%)
thereof as each attains the age of twenty-five (25) years; and
the remainder of said share as each attains the age of thirty
(30) years. In the event any of my said children shall fail to
attain the age for distribution of any part of their share and
shall be survived by issue, then his or her share shall be held
by my Trustee for said issue and distributed to them as each
shall attain the age of twenty (20) years. The share or
undistributed share of any of my said children who shall not be
survived by issue shall be distributed by my said Trustee
equally to my remaining children in accordance with the terms
hereof.
(c) Prior to the di.stribution of the principal of any such
share, my said Trustee shall have the sole discretion to invade
the principal of said share for the support, maintenance and
education of such children or issue of such deceased child,
