To retain any property, real or personal which Execu-
tor may receive as Executor, even though ;such proper-
ty (by reason of its character, amount, proportion
to the total estate or otherwise) would not be con-
sidered appropriate for a fiduciary apart from this

otherwise dispose of any property which Executor may
hold from time to time, at public or private sale or
otherwise, for cash or other consideration or on
credit, and upon such terms and such considerations
as Trustee shall see fit.
C. To invest and reinvest the estate from time to time
in any property, real or personal, including securi-
ties of domestic and foreign corporations and invest-
ment trusts, bonds, preferred stocks, connmoil stocks
(whether fiduciary or non-fiduciary), mortgages,
mortgage participations, even though such investment
(by reason of its character, amount, proportion to
the total trust estate, or otherwise) would not be
considered appropriate for a fiduciary apart from
this provision.
D. In dividing into separate shares or in distributing
same, to divide or distribute in cash, _i.n kind or
partly in cash and partly in kind, a:7 Executor
thinks fit. For purposes of division or distribu-
tion, to value the estate and any party thereof,
reasonably and in good faith, and such valuation
shall be conclusive upon all parties. T~:~ whatever
extent division or distribution is made in kind, my
Executor shall, so far as Executor finds practica-
ble, allocate to the respective beneficiaries approx-
imately proportionate amounts of each kind of securi-
ty or other property in the estate.
