The term "descendants" refers to all naturally born or legally adopted descendants of all degrees of the person indicated. Article II I give all of my property to my two daughters, Lenore H.

Article IV (1) I direct my executrix to pay all expenses of administration and all inheritance, estate, succession, and similar taxes "[death taxes]" imposed upon my estate by reason of my death, from the assets of my residuary estate, whether or not the expenses of administration of death taxes are attributable to property passing under this will.

I relieve my executrix of any duty to make adjustments to the shares or interests of persons who may be adversely affected by such elections and from any liability for making such elections.
