ARTICLE 2 I direct that my just debts and funeral expenses be paid as soon after my death as may be practicable, except for any debts secured by pledges of real or personal property. Such secured debts shall either be assumed by my heirs or devisees as a charge against the property securing them, or shall be paid by my Executrix as a chazge against my estate,as my Executrix,in her sole discretion, shall deem advisable. ARTICLE 3 A. I bequeath all of my tangible household furnishings and goods, including, but not limited to my oriental rugs,jewelry,clothing,personal effects,and other tangible household items, but specifically excluding cash and securities,to my sister,SUSAN D.CRAIG,of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania,and to my niece, SARA E.BiSHOP,of New York City,New York,or to whichever of whom shall survive my death, to be divided equally between them, or as they may otherwise agree.

In the event SUSAN D.CRAIG shall fail or cease to act as Executrix for any reason whatsoever, then I do hereby nominate and appoint my niece, SARA E. BISHOP, to act in that capacity. C. If it should be required by law that there be a resident fiduciary with respect to any appointment made herein of a non-resident fiduciary,then such non-resident fiduciary shall select a Page 2 of 6 �,� resident fiduciary to serve with or for the non-resident fiduciary, with the resident so selected to serve without surety or security on any bond that may be required by law. D. If ancillary administration be required in any jurisdiction in which my Executrix shall be unable or unwilling to qualify,then my Executrix shall designate in writing the person or corporation to act as ancillary Executor,with all of the powers and immunities of my Executrix as may be specifically delegated by such written designation.

ARTICLE 6 A. Any beneficiary who fails to survive me by 120 hours shall be deemed to have predeceased me, and the gift to such beneficiary shall be disposed of accordingly. B. The term °tangible personal property" shall be construed as not including any such properiy that,in the determination of my Executrix,is(i)held primazily for investment purposes or (ii) used in connection with any business in which I may be engaged or in which I may have any interest at the time of my death.
