Opinion

Per Curiam,

The manifest intent of the testatrix in creating a testamentary trust was not only to preserve the remainders under her will, but to prevent the property from coming into the control of the life beneficiary and to put it under the management, control and discretion of the trustee during his life and the minority of the youngest of his children. This was enough to bring the case within the principle of Watson’s Appeal, 125 Pa. 340.

Decree affirmed with costs.
