Opinion

Per Curiam,

There is no merit in this appeal. In Crozier’s Appeal, 90 Pa. 384, this Court held that “ the right given by statute to a [176]*176widow to elect not to take under her husband’s will is purely personal, and in the event of her death without having exer- • cised said right her heirs or personal representatives cannot make the election.” That principle rules this case.

Decree affirmed and appeal dismissed at appellant’s costs..
