Judgment by:
Mctiernan J

In my opinion the decisions which the learned primary judge Brazel J gave on the questions raised by the notice of appeal are correct. The decision on each question, in my opinion, proceeds from a correct interpretation of the will and is supported by the cases cited by the learned judge relevant thereto. I find it unnecessary to add anything to his Honour's reasoning. The appeal, in my opinion, should be dismissed.
