DISTRIBUTION OF PERSONAL PROPERTY THIRD: I bequeath all my tangible personal and real property to my husband Roy B. Hunter, if he survives me. If my husband does not survive me, I bequeath such property to my daughters Laurie S. Strohl and Leslie B. O'Neil in equal shares, the executor representing minors in such division. If any of my children do not survive me, then that portion shall be distributed to the existing grandchildren of that child. Any such property to which a minor would otherwise become entitled but which the executor thinks unsuitable for such minor shall be held in safekeeping by the guardian or 1 )) /I initials shall be sold and the proceeds thereof shall be distributed to the guardian of the estate of such minor thereinafter named, without bond, and the receipt of such guardian shall be a complete release of the executor. Any such property to which a minor thus becomes entitled may be delivered to the guardian named herein, without bond, and the receipt of such person shall be a complete release of the executor. In case of disagreement among my beneficiaries, the executor is authorized to make the division having due regard for the personal preferences of my beneficiaries, but making such division in as nearly equal shares as the executor deems practical.

RESIDUARY CLAUSE FOURTH: I devise and bequeath all the residue of my estate, real and personal, to my husband Roy B. Hunter, if he survives me.

FINANCIAL GUARDIANSHIP CLAUSE FIFTH: If any beneficiary of my esta.te is under the age of twenty-five years at the time at whi.ch distribution of any property devised and bequeathed by this will would otherwise be made to such beneficiary, the person designated as Executor of this will shall serve as financial guardian of the estate of such beneficiary hereinafter named. The guardian shall hold, manage, invE~st and reinvest the property, shall collect the income thereof, and shall apply so much of the net income and, if 1:he net income is insufficient, so much of the principal of the property held for such beneficiary as the guardian shall deem necessary or advisable for such beneficiary's health, maintenance, support and complete education.

No interest income or principal shall be assignable by a beneficiary or available to anyone having a claim against a beneficiary before actual payment to the beneficiary. 3 " I ,,?J /1 initials When such beneficiary attains the age of twenty- five years, the guardian shall distribute to such beneficiary all property held by the guardian for such beneficiary. If such beneficiary dies before attaining the age of twenty-five years, the guardian shall distribute to the personal representative of such beneficiary's estate all property held by the guardian for such beneficiary, unless otherwise provided for in this will. EXECUTOR AND SUCCESSOR SIXTH: I appoint my husband, Roy B. Hunter, as executor of this will. If Roy B.
