I, MARGARET J. LUTES, of Camp Hill, Cumberland Coun
Pennsylvania, make, publish and declare this as and for my Last'
Will and Testament, hereby revoking all other Wills and Codicils
heretofore made by me.
FIRST: I devise and bequeath all the rest, residue and
remainder of my estate of whatever nature and wherever situate,
including any property over which I hold power of appointment and
together with any insurance policies thereon, to my daughter,
SARA E. ACHUFF, provided that should she predece<~se me, I give
and bequeath all the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, in
equal shares, to my grandchildren, CARRIE E. DAV:LS, SALLY J.
ACHUFF and RACHEL J. ACHUFF.
SE(~'OND: Should any of my grandchildren not have
attained the age of twenty-three (23) years at tYie time for dis-
tribution to him or her, I give, devise and bequeath the share of
each such grandchild to my hereinafter named Trustee or Trustees,
IN SEPARATE TRUSTS, to hold, manage, invest and reinvest the
shares so received, and to use and apply from time to time such
portion of income and principal for the said gran.dchild's
education (including college, trade school or other similar
training or education), as my Trustee or Trustees, in their sole
discretion, deem advisable. The Trustee or Trustees, in
exercising their discretionary authority with respect to the
payment of income or principal of the within Trust to my grand-
children, shall take into consideration any income or other
resources available to my grandchildren from sour~~es outside this
Trust.

Any income or principal not so applied shall be dis-
tributed to each grandchild when she attains thE~ age of twenty-
three (23) years. In the event any of my grandchildren die prior
to the termination of this Trust established hez-ein for their
benefit, the interest of said grandchild in saic~ Trust shall
cease with any income and principal being divided evenly between
that deceased grandchild's sisters or the separate Trusts
established hereunder for their benefit.
THIRD: In addition to all powers granted to them by
law and by other provisions of this Will, I give the fiduciaries
acting hereunder the following powers, applicable to all proper-
ty, exercisable without court approval and effective until actual
distribution of all property:
(A) To sell at public or private sale, or to lease,
for any period of time, any real or personal property and to give
options for sales, exchanges or leases, for such prices and upon
such terms (including credit, with or without security) or
conditions as are deemed proper. This includes the power to give
legally sufficient instruments for transfer of the property and
to receive the proceeds of any disposition of it.
(B) To partition, subdivide, or improve real estate
and to enter into agreements concerning the partition, subdivi-
sion, improvement, zoning or management of real estate and to
impose or extinguish restrictions on real estate„
(C) To compromise any claim or controversy and to
abandon any property which is of little or no va7_ue.
(D) To invest in all forms of property, including
stocks, common trust funds and mortgage investmer.~t funds, without
restriction to investments authorized for Pennsylvania fiduci-
aries, as are deemed proper, without regard to any principle of
diversification, risk or productivity.
2
(E) To exercise any option, right or privilege granted
in insurance policies or in other investments.
(F) To exercise any election or privilege given by the
Federal and other tax laws, including, but not necessarily being
limited to, personal income, gift and estate or inheritance tax
laws.
(G) To make distributions to my herein named benefici-
aries in cash or in kind or partly in each.
(H) To borrow money from themselves o:r others in order
to pay debts, taxes, or estate or trust administration expenses,
to protect or improve any property held under my will, and for
investment purposes.
(I) To select a mode of payment under any qualified
retirement plan (pension plan, profit sharing plan, employee
stock ownership plan, or any other type of qualified plan) to the
extent the plan or the law permits them to do so, and to exercise
any other rights which they may have under the plan, in whatever
manner they consider advisable.
FOURTHS I nominate and appoint CHARLES B. ACHUFF, JR.,
husband of my daughter, SARA E. ACHUFF, as Trustee of the
hereinabove described trusts. In the event of the death, resig-
nation or inability to serve for any reason of the said CHARLES
B. ACHUFF, JR., I nominate and appoint CARRIE E. ;DAVIS, as

fair and reasonable compensation.
FIFTH: I direct that all inheritance, Estate, trans-
fer, succession and death taxes, of any kind what:>oever, which
may be payable by reason of my death, whether or riot with respect
to property passing under this Will, shall be paid out of the
principal of my residuary estate.
3
S XTH: All interests hereunder, whether principal or
income, which are undistributed and in the possession of the
fiduciaries acting hereunder, even though vested or distribut-
able, shall not be subject to attachment, execution or sequestra-
tion for any debt, contract, obligation or liability of any
beneficiary, and furthermore, shall not be subject to pledge,
assignment, conveyance or anticipation.
SEVENTH: I nominate and appoint SARA E. ACHUFF,
