C UM B E RL:i,' u., `:` WALLACE L. WAYNE
I, WALLACE L. WAYNE, of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, declare this
to be my will and hereby revoke all prior wills and codicils made by me.
1. Personalty. I bequeath to my wife, Daris A. Wayne, all of my
tangible personal property not used in business or for the production of
income, including without limitation furniture, furnishings, clothing,
jewelry, objects of art and decoration, and the like, and any motor
vehicles which I own, together with the insurance thereon, if she survives
me. If my wife does not survive me, then I bequeath all said property,
together with the insurance thereon, per stirpes to those of my issue who
survive me, except that I bequeath all guns, firearms, pistols and rifles
owned by me at my death, whether operational or otherwise, to my friend
Nevin 0. Funk, who presently resides at 4613 North Clearview Drive, Camp
Hill, Pennsylvania. If said issue are not all competent adults or repre-
sented by competent adults, or if they cannot agree on the divisions, then
my executor(s) shall sell any or all items passing hereunder and distribute
the proceeds.
2. Residue. I bequeath, devise, and appoint all the rest of my prop-
erty, of whatever nature and wherever situated, including property over
which I hold a power of appointment, except that I do not exercise any
power of appointment given to me by my wife, to my wife, Daris A. Wayne,
if she survives me, or, if she does not survive me, per stirpes to my
issue, with the share of any child of mine who fails to survive me and
fails to leave issue who survive me divided and distributed per stirpes to
my issue who do survive me.
3. Survival. If any beneficiary should die within sixty (60) days
after me, then he shall be deemed to have predeceased me for all purposes
of this will.
4. Spendthrift Clause. No interest of any beneficiary hereunder
shall be subject to anticipation, pledge, assignment, sale or transfer in
any manner, nor shall any beneficiary have power in any manner to charge or
encumber his interest, nor shall the interest of any beneficiary be liable
or subject in any manner while in the possession of my fiduciaries for any
liability of such beneficiary, whether such liability arises from his
debts, contracts, torts, or other engagements of any type.
5. Facility of Payment for Minors or Incompetents. Any amounts or
assets which are payable or distributable to a minor or incompetent
hereunder may, at the discretion of my fiduciaries, be paid or distributed
to the parent or guardian of such minor or incompetent, to the person with
whom such minor or incompetent resides, or directly to such minor or incom-
petent, or may be applied for the use or benefit of such minor or incom-
petent.
6. Powers. In addition to such other powers and duties as may be
granted elsewhere herein or which may be granted by law, my fiduciaries
hereunder shall have the following powers and duties, without the necessity
of notice to or consent of any court:

sonal, in the form in which it may be held at the time of its

additional taxes (and interest and penalties thereon) imposed on account of
my interest in or power over any trust established by my wife shall be paid
- 6 -
out of the property held in such trust, and all other property includible
in my taxable estate for federal or state tax purposes, whether or not
