Opinion

Decree of the Surrogate’s Court of Nassau county, so far as appealed from, reversed on the law, with costs, payable out of the estate, to all parties appearing and filing briefs, and the matter remitted to the surrogate with directions to enter a decree providing that the expenses arising out of or connected with the care and maintenance of the real property known as Ivy Hall, pending its sale, are chargeable against and shall be paid out of the principal of the widow’s residuary trust. We are of the opinion that the provisions of the will do not show any intention on the part of the testator that the carrying charges should [688]*688be paid from the daughters’ residuary trusts. According to the provisions of the will, the proceeds of Ivy Hall, when sold, become a part of the widow’s residuary trust, the income of which will be paid to her during her lifetime. Under these circumstances, the carrying charges of Ivy Hall, until sold, are properly chargeable to the principal of the widow’s, residuary trust. This disposition, we think, cannot be said to be burdensome to the widow. Lazansky, P. J., Young, Kapper, Scudder and Tompkins, JJ., concur. Settle order on notice.
