A testatrix by a codicil to her settlement directed that her plate and pictures should at her death be equally divided among her five children. She was predeceased by her sons George and Robert, the latter of whom had issue. Held (1) that such a bequest did not accresce to the co-legatees; ( 2) that the conditio si sine liberis did not apply to such a bequest; and (3) that therefore these two lapsed shares fell to be distributed according to the directions in the residuary clause of the settlement.
